My parents have agreed to pay the $5000 rental fee for the place for our wedding & reception (a restored lake house) & the $140 per person catering/bar fee for 125 guests.
My Fiance comes from a split family, so we have agreed that each family (my parents, his father/step-mother, his mother/step-father & he/i) can invite 32 people. If anyone wants to go over that number that family must pay the $140 per person fee in order for those guests to attend. For example, my Fiance's mother wants to invite 40 people, she/her husband will have to pay for the 8 extra people to come. Do you think this is fair? We know we could have the wedding somewhere cheaper & have more people, but thats not what is important to us. To us, the importance lies in having the wedding somewhere personal to us with those closest to us. Also, his parents have not yet volunteered to contibute anything to the wedding.
