Gifts are only gifts if they are given without clauses, otherwise they are manipulation

A say, yes. The final decision, no.

If you say you’re going to pay for the entire wedding, that’s your gift to your child and their spouse to be in my opinion. If u got it like that you can get them a physical present to, but the money should be a gift aka use this money to buy whatever you want for your dream wedding. If it’s within the budget and yall want it for your wedding then get it cuz it’s yalls day not the parents day, they had their day. You shouldn’t use your money as leverage to blackmail your child into buying things you want for their wedding. If they don’t get free reign then maybe you shouldn’t pay for their wedding or maybe just offer to pay for something specific you’d like to have a say in to feel a part of the wedding.

I think if they’re funding the entire thing then they have a right to have opinions on things where one version costs 3k and the other costs 2k but I don’t think that they get to decide what flavour cake you have or what dress you buy. Financial, but not creative veto. And they can have opinions on the other things, but only in the same way that your friends might.

if they bring up requests/demands the it is transactional not a gift or done out of kindness

Is it a gift or an investment? Cos there’s a difference.

when you offer to pay anything for someone, you shouldn't expect to have a say in it other than how much you're paying. If you pay for someone's dinner, you don't choose their food and expect them to have it even if they don't like it.

We were extremely lucky to have £15k gifted to us for our wedding. My dad’s dealbreaker was that cheese had to available after the meal but other than that he said go for your life! 😂😭

No. I paid because I love my kid & wanted her wedding to be about her & her husband. Barn, food truck, great DJ. It was awesome & totally them!

My mom’s only “demand” was that there was a mac and cheese bar during cocktail hour (she paid for it). My dad’s “demand” was that he didn’t have to make a toast. GOATS.

This is where clear communication helps. Is this a gift or do you want to have a say? Then you decide if you want to accept based off their answer.

Nah if they wanna gift money it’s so their child can have a better day, not so they can ensure they get x,y or z. If they don’t wanna give money without demands then the couple should plan a wedding within their budget.

Nope. It’s a gift. Money given with stipulations is manipulation.

Jsut cos something is a “cultural thing” still doesn’t mean it’s right

It’s either a gift/a kind gesture or it’s not.

Evil Laura Palmer :
I am too autistic to play these games. A gift is a gift and if you just straight up give me money, then that money is no longer in your control and I can do what i want with it 😅 yes including ‘cultural things’. Sometimes culture is toxic and we’re allowed to break it whenever we want

Christina Knees :
Both sets of parents are funding nearly our whole wedding. outside of a few must haves on the guest list they haven’t had much say. And if we say no to something they suggest it’s the end of it. I’m so greatful I have respectful parents on both sides that told hold the funds they give us over our heads for control

Katie Gibbs216 :
so much of this is about just... being nice people??? on both ends? It's the kids' wedding, it's polite and generous not to dominate it, but if parents are paying, it's polite and shows gratitude not to ignore what they want!

This is why I wont have anyone helping financially

Proff :
I would say yes, but any demands they have should be laid out clearly when before anything is paid for. For example yes we’ll pay for your venue but you must have it local and we get x invites for family friends. Goalpost need to be fixed before money is given.

I hope to pay for my daughter’s entire wedding, and have no say. I’d love to be involved…. But it’s her wedding

“Silent investors”. I’d make a contract agreement.

Roimf :
The absolute correct answer is no they should not because if they’re financially contributing, it should be seen as a gift with no strings and if they’re contributing financially because they want to say then they’re doing it for the wrong reason

SMSchell :
Parents probably feel this way because this was done to them as well - my Mom never got to plan her own wedding, and she expected to plan mine with me having little to no say. That didn’t work out very well for us. We’re okay now, but man that was a hard year.
