My sibling got married this year. It was brilliant I really loved the whole thing.
My parents paid for everything from the venue and the dress right down to the invites and favours. They’re not loaded but they’re pretty comfortable and they were happy to do it.
I love attending weddings but I can’t see myself ever having one. It’s just not for me. If I ever did it it’d be a very small affair. Maybe while on holiday and then come home hire a hall and have a party. If I ever did this I’d want to pay for it all.
My question is would I be super unreasonable to broach the subject of maybe getting a similar amount of money to the wedding cost from my parents?
I’m not well off and it could do a lot of long term good. If I had that sort of money I’d hopefully pass my driving test and buy a car, look into buying my council house and possibly doing an OU degree.
My parents are wonderful people and I’d hate to be grabby or cheeky so give it to me straight MN am I being a grabby cow?
