Those couples who are heading down the aisle have a lot to consider before they say \u2018I do\u2019. Namely, they\u2019ll have to decide on a location, a venue and a guest list for their wedding. Just as importantly, at some point they\u2019ll need to discuss what food they want to have served on their big day. If you and your betrothed are currently battling with this decision, you may have the following question on your mind: who pays for the food at a wedding? Here\u2019s a little bit of information that should help.<\/p>\n
Throughout history, the bride\u2019s father generally paid for many aspects of his daughter\u2019s wedding, including the food that\u2019s served at the reception. This stems from the idea that the bride would come with a dowry. However, in 2014, a survey revealed that only 18% of weddings are still paid for in this manner.<\/p>\n
There are really two things to consider if you break from tradition. First of all, can you afford to pay yourself? The average wedding now costs in the region of \u00a330,000, so you\u2019ll need cash in the bank if you and your betrothed don\u2019t want any help. Secondly, ask yourself if the father of the bride wants to help. After all, more traditional dads could view it as a sign of disrespect to be bypassed.<\/p>\n
A survey by the Wedding Channel recently revealed that 12% of the wedding is usually paid for by the groom\u2019s family. While there\u2019s nothing to stop couples from asking for more from that side of the family, the percentage is a reasonable amount to cover the grub.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s your wedding so don\u2019t be pressured into a decision that you\u2019re not comfortable with. However, if you\u2019re expecting someone else to pay, then it\u2019s more than likely they\u2019ll provide a budget for you to work within.<\/p>\n
