Your getting married so that means she is always right. Welcome to the rest of your life.

My wife's parents didn't drink and didn't have a lot of money to begin with so my dad sprung for the booze but her parents paid for the rest

Bride's parents pay for the reception.

Of course, the bride's parents can decide they won't pay for alcohol for the reception, in which case another group, such as groom's parents, could step up and pay for it.

I've seen this happen. If the bride's family is religious, the groom's family may step in and cover that. I'd say that's probably the most flexible thing these days.

This.

Groom's parents are also expected to cover the honeymoon.

She did;t even want her parents or my mom and brother to be there when we got married. We're going to hurt some feelings in our little big town when we don't invite anyone to the wedding. We're thinking a little ducked off spot in New Orleans with just our immediate family and then a low-key reception the next night back in Lafayette.

And that's getting her to compromise because she wants less than bare bones.

Don't get married and both families can save a shite ton of money.

Traditionally the bride's parents. Stop arguing with your GF.

Bride. But apparently in your case, it'll be groom if you want alcohol.

Brides parents pay for reception which usually includes alcohol if they would like anyone to show up and enjoy themselves.

Traditionally the brides, but I don't think its unusual for the groom's parents to agree to help pay for shite for the reception. Just go off and get married. Save yourself the headache.

frick NO!!!
They are on their own. The open bar, church, reception, flowers, food, photographer, cake person, dress, other shite and gifts are enough.

Weddings are the biggest waist of money. My daughter is getting the minimum if she gets married before 25. Divorce rates too damn high.


It's your generation with the high divorce rates.
