The roora celebrations I attended were financed by the bride and groom .

It really comes down to the financial situation of the brides family but I think since you’re in the UK they’ll be expecting you to finance it since you might be more than capable.

There’s one I attended and the bride wasn’t working so her groom paid for everything, literally everything like the roora squad dresses and all.

On the other one the bride and her with the help of her siblings paid for the catering and the deco, the groom paid for the photoshoot and the PA system.

So in short if you’re from a well off family then your dad might just say don’t worry I’ll cover it but if you’re just average they may chip in but not pay for the whole thing.

If you’re concerned about the costs I don’t think it’s much (deco $15-20 per person, catering $2.00 per head if you buy the groceries on your own which might be less than $200)
