[quote=Anonymous]Op I understand where you are coming from. My parents forwent items, vacations, meals out in order to save 100% for my wedding. (hindsight I wish they didn't.) My brother married a women whose family splurged and contributed nothing to theirs. My brother (my parents stepped in and contributed a lot, too) paid a large part. Did it suck? Yes. Did I feel it was unfair/irresponsible, yes. I felt badly for my brother and my parents for being financially responsible and then that was taken advantage of. Would I have done it that way? No, but it was not up to me. But, being a parent of two girls, we have planned a gift to cover half of their wedding with it being up to them and their spouse to find how to cover the other half. I do not believe "the brides family pays for the wedding." OP - consider your gift to be about half of the expenses and leave it at that.[/quote]
