Thanks for your reply! So the only wedding I’ve been too (my sisters) everything has been included but apparently it is common knowledge you need to give a donation at some point for the wedding? Again it was my big sisters wedding and I was like broke and 20 at the time so nothing was ever mentioned to me but my mom paid so I feel like it was just not mentioned to me because I was poor lmao. And I am not referring to the wedding and bridal parties as socials! In Manitoba where I am from (this is something I just learned) socials are basically just a party at a community centre we’re random people pay to buy a ticket to party for the night (proceeds go towards the wedding) and the bridal party/wedding is for people that the bride/groom knows. Socials are very popular in Manitoba but the last person who commented let me know that nobody else has socials lmao news to me!
