Those of you who had their Nikkah ceremony done prior to the Barat function, who payed for the nikkah function?
Did you split the cost between both families?

Desi tradition is for girls family to pay. My brother had his Nikah done in Pakistan he became the dulha and we ate biryyani korma later turned out the girl was in love with some one else and she called my brother to cancel the Nikah but we enjoyed the dawaat. We were happy that we didn’t have to pay. Arranged marriages are so risky.
