Planning a wedding abroad - not anywhere glitzy, but where DP is from and his family still live. It is a very low-key plan so far, with 16 people including us (all immediate family).
If we pay for everyone's flights and accommodation the total wedding budget is £4K (about twice what we can afford).
If we pay for accommodation but not flights it's £2k (within budget)
If we don't pay for anyone's flights or accommodation it's £1.3K.
We wouldn't ask for any presents. Would we be unreasonable to ask people to pay for their flights and / accommodation? To be honest I'd feel bad letting them pay for both so would it be ok if we paid accommodation only?
My parents could easily afford their own flights, but my sisters and their DPs are on quite low incomes. SIL and BIL are both students, although DP's parents would pay for them to fly and they would not need accommdation.
