My second wedding was my current wifes first. Her parents paid for some things, my parents insisted on paying for some things, my wife's brother bought her dress as a wedding gift and the rest came out of my pocket.
The break up of where the money came from is not too dissimilar to wedding one. Actually, I think I paid more for wedding one myself - go figure.
Why should my second wife not get to have the nice wedding because I have been around once already? I don't think either of us would've wanted something that bankrupted our parents, either.
Back to the question of who pays - this has to be an issue covered by all parties involved - I definitely don't agree that the brides parents should foot the bill, but if they are willing to contribute, who are we to say no?
