That’s…so much more detail you really don’t need to get into esp on here. It doesn’t matter what they did for their daughter, you’re not their daughter, and it really doesn’t matter what someone elses family did either.

Dholkis are hosted by family members, YOU don’t pay for anything! Is your mom helping/advising you on any of this (not financially but in other ways)?

Don’t go broke trying to do everything their way if they’re not willing to help out…it isn’t fair and blahblahblah ppl will tell you life isn’t fair we all know that but still…why ruin your own future over a party? there’s so many events and costs that can be cut if cost is the biggest issue…everyone will whine and complain but they’re not paying so ignore them.

I agree with the last part. If they’re not putting in the $$ or effort, keep it minimal. That’s what my parents decided in the end too. No need for a crazy hall, or insane food. Do it tastefully and low key. Spend that money elsewhere on yourself. We’re doing what we can afford easily and want to spend and then spending the rest on me vs the events.
