Traditionally, wedding expenses are shouldered by groom. Often, the bride usually does not spend much, unlike in other countries, where brides are expected to pay up. Nonetheless, unless the couple already had an agreement, the groom is expected to shell out everything for the event.
When Long-time Talent (LT) and Entrepreneurial Actor (EA) officially announced they were getting married, their fans, family, and friends were all excited. Finally, after having a series of non-successful relationships with showbiz personalities, LT finally found the one in EA. Although EA had a promising career, reality stepped in to remind him that he could earn more if he paid attention to his business concerns. Slowly, he deviated from showbiz commitments and focused on his businesses. This decision proved to be a better choice, as he had more time to spend with LT. Meanwhile, LT continued in her career.
As their big day arrives, certain issues have become a touchy subject. Although LT is financially stable and could afford to hold her wedding, her family was shocked to discover that they would indeed be financing for their own needs during the said event. Given that the decision was to hold the wedding away from the maddening crowd of the capital, LT and EA chose a church that was not near where her family members are based. Hence, they would have to spend on their transportation and accommodations. The idea that EA seems to ignore helping them out on this matter had to be approached calmly. Thus, family members who will join the event had to shell out quite an amount.
The happiness of LT is far more important than money spent and luckily, her family members are not going to make a big deal of money matters.

ReplyDeleteLT-K,EA-P both kaf....easy
ReplyDeletepoorita ba family ni girl? hinde naman diba?? so why so feeling kailangan I-accommodate pa mga expenses nila..
ReplyDeleteLT = K EA = P Understandable! On the family's side did they expect just because EA came from a good background and LT is financially stable that they would shoulder all the guests costs for the wedding? Are they milking the couple? LOL. If it were other couples don't think they'd act that way. Family entitlement lang siguro. Book your own flights and hotels.
ReplyDeleteOmg dapat naman tlga yung bisita ang gagastos ng hotel at airfare not the couple. Kahit family member pa sila.
ReplyDeleteTama. And if that guest or family member can't afford eh di wag na lng mag attend. Maiintindihan naman ng couple yon instead na asahan sila magbayad.
DeleteNOT true nowadays that the Groom is expected to pay for everything. Hindi na uso yun. Wag po tayo assuming. Modern age na. Kung sino ang kayang magbigay ng ganitong budget, then other family is this budget, then that's it. No formula, no computation, no porsyento porsyento.
ReplyDeleteExcept for the immediate families, all guests must pay for their plane tickets, accommodations, etc.
Sino sila? Clue mga baks!
ReplyDeleteDa who ba ito? Help classmates
ReplyDeletejusko.. sa panahon ngayon.. sagot na ng bisita ung fare and accommo.. kung meron mang silang sasagutin.. immediate family pede.. tagal inabangan ni k yan kaya wag na umarte.
ReplyDeleteok lang yun di naman lahat oobligahin pa groom pati accomodation nila, sa dami ng inintindi di na nya sagot yun
ReplyDeleteFeeling entitled naman yung guests kahit ba family. Sapatos mo karga mo. Ayaw mong gumastos e di wag kang umattend
ReplyDeleteHindi naman kkb yan kung alam ng couple na hindi afford ng family members ang airfare and accommodations. Tawagin nyong kuripot kung pati gowns ng entourage kanya kanyang bayad.
ReplyDeleteMga baks konting clue naman! Ako lang ba talaga nag-iisang nilalang sa mundo ang hindi makahula nito????
ReplyDeleteHinde ka nagiisa anon 8:34. Clue nmn please.
DeleteIf you can't afford to attend a destination wedding, simply decline the invite. I'm sure the couple will understand. What they will not understand is to ask them to pay for your transportation and accommodation.
ReplyDeleteI doubt na k and p. Ayaw pagastusin ng family ni p si k. Nung magask family ni k anu sagutin sinabi wala sila nlng daw lahat. Saka mayaman din family nina k.
ReplyDeletesya na nga sagot sa gastusin sa kasal pati ba naman accomodation kanya kanya na yun.
ReplyDeleteOk lng yan, mayanan nmn family nila k. I mean both families can really afford
ReplyDeleteyamanin problems...
ReplyDeleteactually na surprise ako, kasi it is but that the side of the girl shoulder for their transportation costs. siguro accomodation dapat sa guy. pero do not expect na lahat karguhin ng side ng guy.
ReplyDeleteNo problem, if they are ok with, just didnt know that P is kuripot
ReplyDeleteif this is really K, her family wouldn't mind because as she is from a well to do family as well. they may not be as rich as J but they are RICH..
ReplyDelete
