What is the groom's family supposed to pay for? β€Ί

The groom's family traditionally paid for all costs associated with the rehearsal dinner and honeymoon, wedding day transportation, and the officiant.

How much should parents pay for a wedding? β€Ί

How much do parents pay? On average, parents pay between 35-40% of the wedding costs. If you follow tradition, the bride's family is expected to meet the bigger portion of the wedding expenses. But since money is like a gift to your wedding, you should be thankful for what the parents offer.

Whose family pays for the wedding? β€Ί

What does a mom give her son on his wedding day? β€Ί

What does the groom's family give to the bride? β€Ί

Who typically pays for wedding flowers? β€Ί
