what is the custom in D.R. culture for wedding etiquette of who pays for what? not to get too technical but here in the U.S. the brides family pays the lions share of the costs associated with the wedding. i know it all depends on the financial means of each family, but what are the general rules for middle class families?

in practice the one who has the money is the one who pays.
but traditionally bride's parents pay for the wedding, groom's parents or padrino provide drinks, madrina pays for the cake.
