Hello everyone.
My fiancé and I are getting married in July.
Since we are a bi-national couple, most of my partner‘s guest are going to have an international journey just to attend our wedding, which we really appreciate.
However, we are going to have a more low-budget wedding. Now I am wondering if it is customary to pay for guest‘s accommodation. I’ve been hearing different things.
On the one hand, it would cost us maybe 2000€ extra.
On the other hand, these people will take a vacation day from their jobs and travel from different countries, which is already expensive, so I want to make them feel welcome and not think of this as an event where they have to pay to attend, since most of our friends and loved ones also aren’t very wealthy.
I’ve never gotten married before and would’ be grateful for your advice.
