    It has been an equal thing. We have both contributed to the budget.

    We do it all together. Everything spent for the wedding we have done it together. He didn't hesitate to increased my dress budget when we were told the price of my dream dress. He is the bread winner but he definitely always makes me feel that it's our money.

    We are very blessed and my family is paying for our wedding. My parents gave us a budget and my fiance helps me stick to it.

    My mom! She is the one that is paying for it. But she keeps telling everyone how well we are doing trying to stay in budget and how we are still under budget!

    Mutual influence on the cost of things. Though I stress over money more than he does

    We don't have a set budget, but we're doing everything as cheap as possible since him and I are paying for everything. I'm in charge of everything.

    And it's not that fun sometimes, lol.

    I definitely am! My dad is graciously helping with the venue and catering, but I have to make sure I find all other vendors within our price range.

    We came up with a budget based on his recommendations for one (he works as a banker so he's better with numbers than I am) but I am in charge of finding DIY or cheap ways to keep it under. So far so good!

    I kinda have a crazy family tree of my dad that raised me before my parents divorced when I went to college(remarried now), my mom and stepdad, and my biological father. I'm very lucky that they all want to contribute to help us have a wedding next Spring instead of a year and a half out as we thought initally. We are keeping wedding expenses mostly under what my family is contributing. I've been the one tackling vendors for quotes and finding us vendors best for our budget.

    We both did. He is the bigger contributer, but I'm more responsible with money than he is. So we balance each other out.

    Both of us - we shared equally although he makes a bit more than me so he paid for a bit more.
