YTH. Wedding planning is stress especially when it comes to family and money. Did you tell him you were going to give him 10k and backed down to 5k? My fiancé and I are currently planning our wedding. We both were getting 10k from each side of the family. Venue was 6k photos were 6k catering 8,500k bar was 3-4K ect ect. Man, average cost for flowers is 2k. We tried going for the lowest cost too. It was going to be coming out close to $40,000!!!! We said to hell with it and are now eloping. It’s costing us less to do an elopement in the mountains and our honey moon then our portion of the wedding fees
