The bride wants us to provide for a large rehearsal dinner, including guests like her grandparents, and I am not sure who else. I am serious about our income, my husband is ill, on short term disability from work, we are right now going to food banks. We can not even make it from month to month. Our son is a college student, works part time, and his opinion is, "its her wedding, she should have what she wants". We are going to be meeting her and her family over Christmas, (we live 3 states away, and another son is paying our way to come visit for holidays). We don't know how to tell this priveledged girl that even a "frugal" rehearsal dinner is out of our means. Should we talk to her family when we meet them, and let them know our "reality"? At this point, I don't even know how we will even be able to afford to ATTEND the wedding, much less pay for the dinner!
