We have been asked to pay for some “Wedding Favors”?
My husband & I will be attending a wedding out of town & are paying for our hotel rm. For some very close friend’s
daughter’s wedding on:7/707.
I rec’d. a call from the mother of the bride wanting to know; if we would contribute to help the bride(her daughter) & groom pay for half of their “Wedding Favors”? I said yes.
I assumed the amt. for us would be nominal ! “These wedding favors/candy” (I believe with their Nm’s., wedding dt.,to give to their wedding guest). Obviously cost $350.00 total. Because, I received an e-mail from the bride thanking us (in advance) for the $150.00 & an address where to send the check). -
My ?: Is it proper for any bride to request financial assistance from (non-immediate family member’s)? The bride is an
“Event Planner” for a major restaurant chain. Lastly, how much should I spend on a wedding gift? Esp., since, they did not state..for the wedding favors in lieu of a wedding gift ! my email is: BRENDITA@HUGHES.NET Thank you for your reply!
Not sure if you want to leave your email address in the question so if this question disappears soon I won’t be too surprised. It’s not typical to ask anyone to pay for the wedding expenses. While 350 isn’t too bad for favors, asking someone you invited to the wedding to cover that cost is tacky in my opinion. However, I hope that in the future before you agree to pay for things you get a firm number from them because they could have just as easily called asking for 600 or more for the favors. I wouldn’t give a terribly large gift at this point.
