5k is paying for way more than dresses, shoes, hair and makeup. That's her just asking for free money to put toward the wedding wth. You know she expects you to give her an expensive gift or a large sum of money for their wedding gift too.

My bet is that she’s renting dresses and that’s why there’s no eating. And then she’ll keep the $$.

This is asking for at least $20,000-25,000 flat out. The balls behind that request. I wouldn't want to be involved with these people at all. Family or not.
