Today, I found out that my fiancé's parents are refusing to pay for a honeymoon, because they "didn't have one, so neither will we", meaning they won't pay for a single thing for our wedding. FML

Why don't you save and pay for it yourselves? That IS an option, you kno.

Agreed with the previous postings. Honestly, if you're old enough to be getting married, then you should be able to afford to pay for the wedding and the honeymoon. If you can't afford it, then you need to figure something out. It's not the parents responsibility, it's yours. YDI for not planning ahead.

don't waste money on the wedding. just get a marriage license from a court house, and save money for your kids education and future family vacations.

no ones responsible for paying your wedding. do it yourself or don't do the wedding thing if you are broke, je*k.

Couples traditionally pay for their own honeymoon. Look it up. If you cannot afford a honeymoon you are not ready to get married. Your future inlaws probably aren't interested in paying for your crap because they don't want their son marrying a spoiled freeloading brat. Don't blame them one bit..

I am twenty and getting married and my fiance is filipino born, american raised and in his culture the grooms parents pay for the wedding. I didn't know this or expect it I had always planned to pay for my own wedding and we didn't set a date until we could afford it. Turns out his parents didnt have the money anyway but we werent out anything because we didnt expect anyones help.

Nut up and pay it yourself. Sure, their logic is shitty, but that's the point where you do it yourself like an adult.

I get what you mean and I also get what everyone is saying. If they won't pay for it and you kind of want to wave it in their face that them being that way isn't going to stop you then just pay for it yourself. But i get what everyone is saying at the same time, i mean if you want to go on the honeymoon then you should pay for it. =(

oh boo hoo... even when parents do help out with the wedding, they usually don't pay for the honeymoon, unless they are some rich ass parents who smother their children. The bride and groom are supposed to raise money themselves for the honeymoon with a Stag and Doe..at least that's what they do here in Canada. You can raise a lot of money that way. Stop waiting for a free ride, better get used to it now honey.
