Traditionally the bride's family pays for certain things, and the groom's family pays for certain things, but more and more people are opting to share in the expenses including the brides and grooms themselves.

Weddings are expensive. There is so much that goes into that special day that many people settle because they think the wedding of thier dreams is out of reach. Mind you, these are not guidelines, just an alternative suggestion. Sit down and talk to the paying parties, and come up with a financial plan that will make everyone happy.

Example: Wedding cost $12,000 ( total )
Bride's family $4,000
Groom's family $4,000
Bride and Groom themselves $4,000

This way, everything is evened out between the families, and if you have a year to plan, that's about $334 a month to save toward the big event.
