Did the bride or groom pay their own travel expenses? Flight, hotel type stuff.
DH is the best man and he isn't sure of the proper etiquette!

I was the bride and we went to LA! I paid for my own ticket. I think the hotel was booked using 1 girls points. My friends treated me for a fancy lunch when we were there.
DH also had one and he paid for his own plane ticket and the guys split accommodations and wouldn't let him pay.
-
No, but my husband has gone on several, including his own. I believe the best man bought his tickets, but I'm not sure. I can ask him!
-
@sunny: The groom wants to go to Whistler!
-
Mine was 3 1/2 hours away. My hotel was covered.
I'm not sure on plane tickets. I think it depends on who chose the location. If the groom to be insisted on Vegas or whatever I think paying his own way to get there would be expected. If it is someone else's idea and they are insisting, they should foot the bill.
-
I agree with @youboots:
If a group is going somewhere that the bride/groom has insisted on, then the bride/groom should be willing to pay to get there (at least).
-
@autumnlove: my husband said he did not pay for much on his bachelor party. The guys all split the hotel and plane ticket (they went to New Orleans).
-
@autumnlove: ooh fun!!!! Are they skiing/boarding? I know where they should stay! I'll wall you
-
@sunny: Boarding! Ok, thanks!
-
I think in my husband's (they went to Puerto Rico) case, he bought his flight but the guys split all the hotels costs between them. I think each guy paid for 1 activity for DH, too. But then DH planned an activity and paid for everyone to sort of thank them.
-
Yeah she paid for her own ticket and hotel but we paid for drinks and dinners and stuff. We went to Vegas
-
yes I've gone on them and my own was destination as well. Usually the bride pays for her own airfare but the rest of the ladies split the hotel.
-
I have. I wasn't in the wedding party, but I know that the wedding party did split the expenses for the bride.
My husband had a destination bachelor party and the guys paid for everything for him for the weekend.
-
DH has and the groomsmen paid everything for the groom.
-
My moh and bms paid for my travel n hotel to Vegas and I bought meals on our trip and made sure their gifts were ott because I felt so thankful!
-
my best friend's bachelorette was in vegas. her parents paid for her ticket/hotel so we didn't have to worry about that. we went to a really nice dinner out and we all paid for that but there was 14 of us so it was cheap. her dad treated us all to a night at thunder from down under! ha! we all paid for a stretch hummer limo and didn't let her pay. otherwise, she covered all her meals etc. i would've paid for drinks buuuut we drank free all week
-
We went to New Orleans and I think covered the hotel?
-
Mine was and everyone chipped in and split my expenses. I bought them all brunch on Sunday.
-
The ones I'm familiar with the bride/groom paid airfare and the bridal party split the hotels / drinks / food.
-
In my and my husbands circle, bride/groom pays for their own plane ticket. Hotel and all food, booze and activities were split among those attending.
-
Mine was and I have gone to a few more. Bride always bought her own plane ticket. At mine, one BM picked up the one night at the hotel, and at others I think whoever was sharing a room with the Bride may have covered the hotel? It definitely wasn't brought up and divided between all.
-
@Anagram: now that's nice group of friends.
-
i've been to SF and vegas and each time the bride paid for her own ticket and we split the cost of the hotels.
-
Mine was in Vegas (we live in so Cal) and the girls pitched in to cover gas (we drove), my hotel, my meals, most of my drinks.
Hubs went on a Carnival booze cruise for his bachelor party and his brother/best man paid for his stateroom and booze all weekend. He didn't pay for anything.
-
DH and I both had destination parties and we both went to multiple destination parties before our own.
Bride and groom always paid for their own flights. Lodging was always split between everyone (although we usually didn't let the bride or groom pay). And people would usually chip in throughout the weekend and pay for drinks, activities, etc.
