One of the first and most important questions that comes up when you start wedding planning is "who's paying?" Traditionally the parents of the bride used to foot the bill, but today many couples are paying their own way!

How are you paying for your wedding? Are your parents generously taking on the tradition of funding the budget? Or are you shaking it up with a more modern payment approach?

    Paying ourselves. Never was a consideration to ask parents.

    Modern, I’m pretty much paying for the wedding as I have the better financial situation. My fiancé has been helping out as well. My parents are covering their guests they want invited, my dress and accessories, and the flowers. I originally wanted fake flowers but my mother said over her dead body and said she would pay for them herself lol.
