    Who's paying for what?



    Did you know that an average wedding designed for 200 guests maximum can costs around $20,000?



    That maybe a lot especially for average couples. Studies show that the first step in planning a wedding is determining who's paying for what to avoid disagreements during the planning stage and possible misunderstanding between couples.



    In the US, the following are the expenses usually paid by the bride and her family:



    Wedding gown, accessories, and shoes

    Wedding invitations

    Bridal consultant's fee

    Videography

    Photography

    Ceremony and reception costs

    Gifts to the flowergirls and bridesmaids

    Transportation and/or accommodations for the bride's family, flowergirls, and bridesmaids

    On the other hand, the groom and his family will normally shoulder the following:



    Groom's attire including shoes and other accessories

    Groomsmen and ushers attire

    Wedding and engagement rings

    Transportation and/or accommodations for the ushers, groomsmen, and groom's family.

    Honeymoon expenses

    Rehearsal and bachelor dinners.

    Marriage license, physical exams, and blood tests costs

    Happy Planning!! Smile
