subject: Weddings - Who Pays? [print this page] The celebration of weddings is now bigger, more extravagant and more creative than ever. Old fashioned traditions are being changed and adapted by newlyweds, and no one knows exactly what to expect anymore. Bride's keep their surnames, fathers won't necessarily walk their daughter down the aisle, and more than ever, couples are living together before marriage.
But when it comes to paying for the wedding, what are the new rules? Do the happy couple pay for the bridesmaid dresses? Does the father of the bride pay for the reception? In Modern Wedding Etiquette, who pays for what?
