Carolyn Hax: Fiancé wants her parents, who don't work, to pay for their wedding
Carolyn Hax is away. The following first appeared Feb. 18, 2011.
Dear Carolyn: I am planning a wedding. My parents are not working, and I have felt I would be paying for my own wedding for a while. I'm a successful professional.
My fiancé, however, is put off that they are not paying and has made several comments: 'You could ask.' 'My parents are more traditional.' 'If we have a daughter, I want us to pay for the wedding.'
