Upset over DH behaviour towards my dad

Tonight we went to see a wedding venue with my pops. My dad has been having a tough time with his business at the min and has literally tied all his money into it, plus borrowing a huge amount of money to buy out a partner has really put him through the mill. Never to say he told me and My so called fiancé that he would give us 5k towards our wedding. We got back in the car and my partner started slating my dad saying how 'tight' he was and that he couldn't believe that's all the money he was giving us.! I tried to back my dad up and say he is having a hard time at the minute and that we had just attended my partners sisters wedding where she spent 15k in one day and how he thought it was such a waste so I didn't understand where he was coming from? He now has turned all bitter on me telling me to book a shit wedding on a shit budget and be happy with the end result.???? He said he was only pissed off because he wants me to have a good day but 5 k to me is a lot of money and u can do a lot with that. I feel so hurt and now he's saying forget it???? And that he won't be contributing any money to it I've come to bed on my own had a little cry but more angry how can he do this to me this is suppose to be the best day of my life and he is ruining it :(

I think many of the other posters may be on to it. My parents have money I don't. My parents are of the opinion that my sibling and I have to work for what we have. However, my sister had a close shave with a similar character. He asked if my parents would give him their waterside apartment if they got married. He was out the door soon after.
