Marriage is a matter between two people, but my mother-in-law said that I have to pay for the wedding expenses.

So here I am, standing in my future in-laws' palatial living room (seriously, my entire childhood home could fit in their foyer), and I’m being told that my family should foot the entire wedding bill. Meanwhile, I’ve been the one supporting their son—my fiancé—through career changes, layoffs, and life’s curveballs. I own our house, I pay most of the bills, and I’ve probably spent more on him than they ever have in the last few years. But because of some ancient tradition, they think they’re off the hook? It’s wild to me that they paid $50k for his sister’s wedding but can’t spare a dime for ours, especially when his mom keeps suggesting venues that cost more than my car. I’m not asking for a handout—just a little fairness. Is it too much to expect a bit of help when I’ve already invested so much in their son’s future? Or am I just being entitled? How would you handle this old-school stubbornness? 😤💸 #WeddingDrama #FinancialFairness #FamilyConflict #RomanticRelationships
