It is important for brides and grooms to work together to create a budget. The first thing to consider is how much money you have at your disposal. A wedding budget helps to manage your vision for your big day; it is a reality check for what you can actually afford. Although it requires some serious thought and discussion, taking the time to budget for your wedding is well worth the effort.

I guess its not important who gives the bigger amount on the wedding. The important is that you both wanted it and have the same effort. Its the love that counts but for the guys, don’t just look at your fiancee paying more bills when know you can still share some more.

I think that if you and your partner are old enough to get married (or at least you think you are), you should be capable to pay for your own wedding. This is not to say that you will utterly, with head held high, refuse your parents’ offers of contributions or monetary support. By all means, accept every assistance offered. But, since you were the ones who decided to tie the knot (assuming this isn’t a forced marriage or anything of that sort), you should be aware of the consequences this decision entails. Which is, of course, the actual wedding day and everything that foes with it. Simple.

I think it is traditional for the bride’s parents to pay for the wedding and the grooms for the rehearsal dinner.

in the old times about 30 to 40 yrs. ago that used to be a tradition especially in the hispanic race and some still believe in that but i don’t think it’s right it should be slit both ways and all turns out well.
