I think I already know the answer but just asking for opinions. I hear that traditionally, the groom's parents pay for the honeymoon? Whether this is true or not we know this isn't an option for us. I know most couples these days pay for their own honeymoon, but this is difficult for us as FI is Australian and we've had to spend a lot of money on flights & visas. We really want to have the honeymoon straight after the wedding (well, the next day) and we're hoping to go to the Carribean since the wedding is in winter and we want to spend time in the warmth.
We're already fortunate enough that my parents are fully paying for the wedding, they understand how much money we've had to spend to simply be together. We've stayed well under the budget they've given us, so would it be unreasonable to ask if we can use any leftover money towards the honeymoon?
Note (added 9/12): FI is a US resident so don't worry about whether he can leave the country.
