Reply To: Wedding Costs….In Law Chutzpah

I didn’t have to tell our son and daughter-in-law about the call. This morning Mrs. CTL got a phone call from our Daughter-in-law. DIL was horrified to find out the same grandfather of the Kallah called DIL’s father with the same question. DIL is a friend of the Kallah’s mother and called her. Seems the man has done this on his own, without consulting or getting permission from the Kallah’s parents. DIL thinks he believes grandparents should pay for as much as possible as there are younger children to educate and marry off.

I think that he should stop sticking his nose into other people’s business and his hand into others’ pockets.

There was no ‘professional shadchan. Couple was introduced by mutual married friends. We keep our noses out of such things. It is the parents’ place to pass judgment/approval not ours.
