Footing the Bill: Modern or Traditional?

Modern, we're paying for our wedding entirely on our own! I know our parents have talked about pitching in some money so we'll see where that leads us but for now we are planning on footing the entire bill ourselves.

Both traditional and modern. My parents (mostly my mom) are paying for a good portion of it but we hve to pay for some of it as well

Modern. We are paying for everything ourselves.

Modern: we are paying for everything ourselves. No one has offered to contribute and if they did, we’d likely not accept it anyway.

We are all paying! Both sets of parents have graciously offered to help pay ! If we end up going over budget (which we will ), we will pay the difference.

I wish I could say traditional but NoNoNoNoNo.... If I be totally honest FH paid for most of the wedding. He said it was the one thing that he really wanted to do, was give me the wedding of my dreams, and be able to pay for it and he has stuck by his word.

Modern. We r adults so under no circumstances would we even dream of anyone paying for our wedding but us. Even if that meat we had to have a courthouse wedding or save for yrs.

A mix of both! My parents are generously paying for a large portion of the wedding and my FH and I are paying for the rest.

My parents, fiancé and I are covering the wedding.

My FH and I are paying for everything. We’ve both been pretty independent from our parents, we’ve never asked for their financial support. We had no expectations for them to offer anything, and they’ve met those expectations so far.

FH and I were originally going to just pay for it but both of our parents have been very generous with helping us pay for the wedding and honeymoon. We are very blessed

Traditional. My parents are paying for everything with FH's family covering the rehearsal dinner and Sunday brunch.

My Mom gave me a modest cash limit. If I stay under the limit, I keep the rest of the money. If I go over, my FH and I have to pay for the rest.

No help offered from the FMIL.

Traditional - my parents are graciously covering the cost of roughly 95% of our wedding

He and I are paying for it. Mostly him, but i'm doing what I can to keep costs low, and earning gift cards doing surveys to pay for as much as I can

We're doing a little of both. My future in-laws are paying for the rehearsal dinner and maybe helping with the flowers. My parents are helping us out quite a bit with the venue, caterer, DJ, and dress. Then FH and I will be paying for the rest ourselves.

Traditional. Our parents are paying for just about everything.

We had intended on planning the wedding we could afford. However, our families graciously offered to contribute a set amount to use however we decided to use it - whether it be for the wedding, a home, savings, whatever we wanted. We chose to use it for the wedding, and because of that we were able to have the party of the year. So our intent was very "modern," but in the end it ended up somewhat "traditional" but not by design!

My parents are helping, but we are paying most of it ourselves...

Modern all the way for this one! My FS and I will be paying for our wedding completely.
