  • The bride's family pays for the wedding and the groom's family pays for the rehearsal dinner.
  • Traditionally here is the breakdown of who pays for what in a wedding.. Groom and His Family: Bride’s engagement and wedding rings Groom’s wedding attire Rehearsal dinner Marriage license Accommodations for out-of-town ushers Alcohol at reception Wedding gifts for the bride, best man and ushers Flowers for the bride’s bouquet, corsages for the mothers and grandmothers. Boutonnieres for ushers, ring bearers and fathers Officiant's fee Honeymoon and transportation to the honeymoon Bride and Bride's Family: Wedding consultant’s fee Invitations, personal notes and mailing expense Transportation for the wedding party Wedding dress, headpiece and accessories Lingerie Attendants’ bouquets Groom’s gift Guest book Cost of the reception Cost of the ceremony Photography and videography expense Groom’s wedding ring Favors Accommodations for out-of-town bride’s attendants
  • Traditionally the brides parents pay for the ceremony and the groom's parents pay for the rehearsal dinner. Now many couples are getting married when they are older and some of them pay for their own wedding if they have been working long enough to have savings.
  • The bride's family pays for the wedding while the groom's family pays for the rehearsal dinner. But i am planning a wedding right now and for both parts the bride and groom is paying for the whole thing.
  • The one that's not mine.
  • Traditionally the bride's family paid for most of the wedding expenses. However, more and more families of the groom are helping out if they can. I know lots of groom's families who have paid for half of the reception since half of the guests were people they invited. Who is paying for what is something that needs to be decided up front so that there are no misunderstandings. You can't expect parents to contribute to a wedding beyond their means.
