My parents arent helping out. It all depends on the person. To me 50k is not that bad for a wedding because I view it as a once in a lifetime event, and it's right there with what we budgeted. If you stick to your budget you can have a great wedding, but don't expect a great wedding for 26k in ny. Even with 50k, we had to cut back on a few things.
you must be making close to 400k a year then if you're not getting assistance from an outside source
