Our wedding venue has eight rooms to stay in, three of which are being used by my fiancee and I, and our parents. We've offered the remaining five to my fiancee's family as they have the furthest to travel. My family's quite large, so we're paying more for all of them to attend the wedding - should we also pay for accommodation for my fiancee's family to 'even things up'?

Hope this is useful!
day and you choose who to invite, your budget etc. I have 6 siblings whereas my husband has one brother so our wedding was never going to be “even”. I personally don’t think you should feel any obligation to pay for guest accommodation unless there is a real
financial challenge for those family members. Good luck and enjoy your special day
