If you had an e-party and your parents paid for it...POLL
Whether it was a casual backyard party or formal party. What did FH's parents give you as a gift?
Trying to help out a friend. Thanks in advance!

To be honest, I don't really remember. I "think" they gave us a couple hundred dollars- I'm pretty sure under $500.
ETS- we had a backyard bbq, but with tent and heater rentals it probably cost as much as a restaurant would have. I think somewhere in the $3000 range.

They told us they're paying for the church....because they demanded we get married in it.
Church - $700, not including pre-cana. We're paying for that.

My ILs gave us a bunch of stuff off of our registry- a lot of the little knick knack stuff (that would usually be for a wishing well) and a few of the larger items. Definetly under $500

for our e-party my IL's did nothing to help us, and they gave us a gift but it doesnt stand out in my head what they gave so it must have not been anything great.

My in-laws got us 4 place settings & the hostess set of our silver which we did not register for but they got silver for both of their daughters & wanted to do the same for their son. My MIL picked out exactly the one I would have had I registered for it. We got another 8 settings for a total of service for 12 for Christmas the same year.
