The Rehearsal Dinner that Wasn't

My brother is getting married tomorrow. It's a second marriage for him, but a first for her, so naturally she wants the whole big production. Fair enough. But when the wedding planning first started, it was clear that bride and her parents had "the sky's the limit" ideas but a more pedestrian budget.

The same thing happened the first time he got married, and my parents ended up paying for quite a bit of the wedding. They aren't wealthy by any stretch of the imagination, but they had more than the first bride's family. My parents did it willingly; they figured he'd only get married once. ;D

This time around... )
