Who Pays for the Wedding - Creative Personalized Keepsakes

I think the subject of who pays for the wedding could be one of the most controversial and confusing parts of the whole wedding planning scenario.

Why is that?

Well in all fairness, I don’t think the traditional way of “the bride’s family pays for about everything” should hold true in light of a lot of things that have changed over the years.
First, the always-changing economy forces a lot of first-time brides’ families to scramble for money. They want give their daughters the best wedding they can on a really limited budget.

This leaves some families doing anything they can to be able to foot the bill, including taking out loans or refinancing a mortgage that they might have problems paying back later on.

So if you’re not ‘in the money’ and the groom’s family is, don’t be too proud to ask for a little help here and there. If the groom’s family is decent about it, they won’t have a problem pitching in to make sure the couple has their dream wedding.

And if you’re the bride’s family and money is no object or not an issue, feel free to stick to tradition you can be who pays for the wedding.

What does the bride’s family pay for? The most expensive parts of the day, of course!
