How do you ask your family for wedding contributions???

My fiance is nervous about asking his parents if they would like to contribute to the wedding. He is afraid they will get offended and feel like they have to contribute. Does anyone have any advice on how to go about this tricky and potentially awkward situation??

    I didn't ask. My mom offered to pay for my flowers. My FH and I are paying for the rest.

    I think the best way to ask would be to ask for a loan. Don't go beyond what you can afford to pay back though.
