Parents Want Wedding Refund from Son! | Part 1 

Good for you two 💕 doing it anyway.

What God ordains, let no man put asunder. @@debdee9663

Can I ask? What was reason for both sides of your family protesting the union?

wow

❤beautiful, sweet, romantic love story❤ bless y'all!!🤗🥰 true love

You gotta learn to spell the word responsibility before trying to be funny 😂

@@briannjames1 thx for the correction, English isn't my native language so yeah, mistakes happen 😘

A big lesson!

I was going to say this 🤣

What a sad country! got married and divorced in one year not even LOL! weird.

Pressure of being officially married, I guess

@@Atrus999 People love to blame the woman 🙄

@@iykeharrison9161 it happens so many times people stay together for years and then decide to get married and a few months later get divorced,will never understand why get married if staying together for many years, waist of time

@@eisbeinGermany i dont understand why statistically people who live together for a while decide to get married then it goes down the shitter and they get divorced really quick....or somewhat quick. I dont understand!

​ @lillyvaughn5398 Because half the time the blame lies on the women. Just like the other half lies on the man. I don't care if people blame a man or woman for something as long as it's fairly placed blame

My parents paid for my brother's first wedding, and his bride left him 3 days after the event. She later claimed she knew weeks beforehand that she didn't want to marry him. Oh well, they chose to pay. Everything in life comes with risk and uncertainty.

For an entire year I paid my 19-yo son’s expenses on a weekly basis while he was at university. He quit studying after a month and never told me. The level of dishonesty continues to blew my mind. I foolishly gave him another chance. He got a traineeship after that and i said i would help financially if he stuck at it. He got fired in the first month because he was partying all the time (using my money) and I had to call the restaurant myself to find out

Absolutely. My parents paid for my wedding and I got divorced. It's life.

​@mattyd3079 wow! How is your relationship now?

@@spencejoynon-existent. He hates me. He is 29 now and we haven’t spoken in 4 years. I love him dearly, but he says i’m a bad father. Truth is, I spoiled him rotten. It’s broken my heart.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"WE'RE DONE!"

hahahahaha lmao

​@@karnliberated im weak😂😂😂😂😂

Boss did you get the papers I sent? NO? where you think you coming today....THE BEach!!??

Amen

It’s only like $60-$100 to get married.

Not true

Everyone can afford to get married if you have like a hundred bucks. Having a big party is another thing. A rehearsal dinner is one of the biggest scams of a wedding, you don't rehearse anything it's just a fancy overpriced dinner

​@@michaelkennedy87 sad that being financially not an idiot is considered a boomer thing

ME TOO ITS SO DIABOLICAL

Ripping off her glasses at the end … so entertaining 😂

I love it when she laughs

When couples didn't start life in debt and parents got to keep their retirement fund.

My wedding reception was in a church basement not too many years ago. It wasn't a wedding for the magazines, but we left the venue just as married.

I'm sorry, did you time travel here from the year 1848 or something?

Simple and therefore good times

​@@timothyhhRural America also exists. Travel more. Yap less.

👋 Happy Thursday!

Hi 👋🏻 I’m actually on time for the first time in a while. S’pose I should eat too. 😊

Hey 😀

@@Richie8a8y me to lol

Present and reporting for duty 😂 hi everyone greetings from PEI 🇨🇦 Pizza buns 🤤

It was probably because of financial issues

Right. This is what we all wanna know!

@@ferrerasneurology7559they were living together during their 4 year relationship, I assume sharing finances. Financial troubles don’t just start once you’re married. I would love the know the real reason.

Usually, it’s the piece of paper that messes things up.

Things were falling apart before they even started!

I don't want to pry but it seems they got divorced for frivolous reasons. And before someone comments "They can do whatever they want", one has to ask why they even got married in the first place. It is evident that people don't respect the institution of marriage. Perhaps, the government shouldn't be involved in the institution anymore.

I think it is just the mother. Mad because she dared to reject her son.

I mean, they're probably not going to get their money back, but I definitely understand their irritation. They put down a giant, non-refundable deposit on their kid's future, and then the kid said, "sike".

there was never a written contract.

It’s all about money. It’s ridiculous.

I guess the marriage is a performance

​@@Jade_902I guess the wedding is a performance

Sometimes the bride's and groom's parents have not met, and this allows them to get to know each other. In addition, if attendants have traveled to be there for the rehearsal, they're not left on their own for dinner after the rehearsal.

Of course, they need to meet and get acquainted. A simple family dinner will suffice.​@@NYNC88

rest in peace

I'm so sorry for your loss. But congratulations on your marriage

Disgusting.

me too. i'd never give him another dime. never.

@@tempgirl00711I think both of you are wrong. You don’t know why their marriage failed, they were together for 5 years. If you’re not comfortable footing the bill for a couple than don’t, but not giving them anything again bc it failed is incredibly selfish and weird especially bc you’re not them.

Don’t foot the bill if you’re not comfortable understanding that relationship can fail.

tough shit. paying for a wedding comes with a risk of the wedding not working. you pay for it and you lose all that money, tough. shit. its on you for being financially irresponsible.

It’s like paying for someone’s birthday bash then getting mad and asking for your money back because the birthday person ended up dying sometime later. Makes no sense

@S_Paoli...Very wise words you have there. Very true as well.

There is truth in what you say but there's nothing wrong with having a big wedding, what's important is that you can afford it and it's actually what you want. I have been very happily married for nearly 15 years now but I would have liked a bigger wedding, I had to have a very small wedding as it's all I could afford and I always felt a little disappointed that I couldn't have something nicer.

or how about getting to really know each other before tying the knot, seek counseling prior to marriage, a counselor can go over finances, personalities, emotions, feelings, compatibility, etc. everything. to help ease mentally mature people down the right path, getting their eyes wide open before taking that leap, they can see what the couple cannot see, or may be in denial about. so many people use divorce as if it's normal, no wonder why we have high azz divorce rates. people that aren't compatible keep forcing the circle into the square and this is what we end up with. counseling doesn't guarantee success but it could help people learn to work on their marriages and issues. to work hard to sacrifice to give and take and share and have patience. etc. smh. people are crazy out there.

​@@TheFakeyCakeMaker no need to be disappointed about the small wedding... You got the big part going right and its all that really matters at the end. 😊

I think huge weddings are silly. Mine was small. Maybe 35-40 max and held on the family farm. I bought a beautiful lace dress off the rack, least expensive rings we could afford, family roasted turkeys, had veggies from the garden, a cousin was DJ for our barn dance, local pastor, and one bridesmaid and one best man. No rehearsal dinner. Our friends and family camped overnight on the property, we all played some volleyball and we stayed in a tiny cabin on the property built just for us. It was a BLAST! A true celebration. No fancy photos, but 38 years later, we are still happily married, everything is paid off, loving our retirement and so glad we didn't go into debt with a big, fancy wedding.

Did you not listen? They were together for 4 years before and lived together for almost the entire time. Who knows what happened. Also, you might demand your kids pay you back, but there is zero legal responsibility to do so, which is what JJ is going to tell these parents.

It is crazy that they could only make it work for 3 months. But, statistically couples are more likely to divorce if they live together before marriage. As far as the parents: wanting money back is ridiculous. It doesn't matter how long the marriage lasts. The cost of a wedding isn't pro-rated based on how long the marriage lasts. If this was my kid, I'd be greatly disappointed at the dissolution of the marriage, and the wedding money would be the least of my concerns.

​@@bradyconeBut they are only separated not divorced

​@@iykeharrison9161 yeah but I'm not holding my breath lol

Unfortunately, it seems like people don’t try to make it work nowadays. Why do we have couples who have been married for 40,50,60 years and nowadays marriages last a couple of weeks?

I was looking for someone to mention The Col Sanders body double

hahahahahahha lmao

😂😂

With Mountain Dew

"Getting married" is quite a bit different from an elaborate wedding/reception.

😂😂

How? They were already LIVING LIKE A MARRIED COUPLE

*fishy

When they can barely afford rent, people will come feast on all that and go back home still saying the wedding wasn't all that😂😂😂😂

I GOT LEFT OVER TACO MEAT WITH NO TACO SAUCE #JJLC

Not everybody does that

nah if my parents are offering, i’m taking. and i’m sure i’ll do it for my future children if god allows as well

They are two immature and entitled idiots. They deserve each other.

Oh, yeah. Over here in the US weddings are large, expensive, and usually end in divorce. But, hey! The parties are fun!

how much money should i give as a gift as a guest to a big italian wedding in new york?

Not necessarily.

It's dinner after the rehearsal practice. It happens all the time.

@@kelbel9337 Not all the time.

It's for people that travel and arrive early (can't travel on day of wedding) and close family to get together in a venue and eat and talk and have a good time. I think only wedding party goes to actual rehearsal but dinner is after that. Rehearsal is so people know where to strand and review of what different segments of wedding are going to be in actual venue (you walk here, then you will do your speech, then...) dinner is just an exciting gathering of family and friends night before

Hehehe
