Did your parents attend your wedding?

The Dwayne Haskins funeral thread from earlier today got me thinking.
Did your parents (divorced or together) attend your wedding? What’s your opinion on if there’s any type of obligation to attend your child’s wedding?
A friend of mine has his wedding coming up this summer and just heard that his dad will not attend. He doesn’t have a close relationship with the man (dysfunctional family past) but he’s still shaken up about it.

If you don’t attend your child’s wedding, there are serious issues and you’ve failed as a parent for whatever the issues are.

Coming from a dysfunctional yet loving family, I’ll never understand parents not being there for their children.

No.
They got stoned and slept through it.

What kind of shite parent wouldn’t attend their kid’s wedding?
I can’t fathom issues deep enough in that relationship that you as the parent couldn’t squash it and attend for your kids

Man, some judgemental Aholes in here .
No , my parents didnt attend my wedding b/c it was a short civil ceremony.. we decided to save the $50k or whatever a wedding would have cost and put a down payment on a house.. the entire wedding industrial complex is obscene and expensive, so decided to forego it entirely .

My grandparents on both sides didn’t go to my parents wedding. My parents got married in a hotel in Costa Rica. My mom is from Costa Rica and her parents didn’t go because she didn’t get married in a Catholic Church. My dad is from Mississippi and my dad had already been divorced so they didn’t bother going. Both sides of my grandparents loved my mom and dad and they never had a problem.

We started planning a wedding and decided it sounded like a pain in the arse so we canceled it and went to Vegas. No regrets.

My wife’s father did not attend our wedding. Had nothing to do with me, we always got along great. He was a true narcissist, as is my MIL, and their conflict drove his absence.
Dude died shortly thereafter. We attended his funeral.

My boss got married in a helicopter over Vegas. Parents were not there.
As long as they support you, who gives a shite? Y'all worry way too much about other people's lives.

Yup.
Fortunate son. Pretty normal upbringing & family.

You’re conflating the scam that is large weddings and your parents being present. They’re 2 distinctly different issues

why do people care so much about this BS
he was a druggy who had issues with his parents and they havent talked to each other in years, a gold digging women who had no interest in getting him off of drugs took advantage of their drug addicted son to get to him to marry her so she can have access to his money and they saw exactly what she was all about so they have no interest in meeting her.
its pretty much as simple as that and i dont blame them one bit since they havent had contact with him for years because it was an extremely toxic situation between them

Of course, I’m not a POS.

Yes.
Even though I married a Catholic in a Catholic church.
Bold venture for a Southern Baptist to walk into a Catholic church.
My mother told me to "convert her".
Coincidentally, my sisters' weddings, both held in a Baptist Church have both now ended in divorces, while I'm still married to that awful Catholic girl from New Orleans.
