We having been planning out wedding in Mexico for over 1.5 yrs. We gave everyone a heads up that it's expensive. FI parents said they couldn't afford it and FI said no parents no wedding. No problem 3,000 gone but I had time to save up and pay for it. His brother we pay 1,000 to help without even a thank you and then his other brother we gave 500 to help and he said thank you. Then 3 days before the final trip payment is due and less than one month away from the wedding my bridesmaid AKA his cousin says they can pay the week after the money is due. I paid 2400 last min without any budgeting to secure thier room and am still waiting for payments. I had to cancel time with my photographer. When she texts me all the fun excursions she's planning I tell her how I can't go because I paid her trip. She has the nerve to get mad at me! Then his brothers that I helped are freaking out that they have to pay 125 for thier tux! I Hate Weddings! NEVER AGAIN. Anyways, my family not a peep they all got thier trip with no help from me!
