All of Reception (music, food, wedding cake, decorations, flowers, etc…)
Wedding gown and accessories
Father's tuxedo and mother's outfit.
The Family of the Groom -
The rehearsal dinner
Groom's cake (if applicable)
Father's tuxedo and mother's outfit.
The Bride -
Groom's wedding ring and wedding gift
Gifts and luncheon for the bridesmaids
The Groom -
Bride's wedding ring and wedding gift
His own formal wear
Corsages for both the mothers and gifts for ushers
Gifts and luncheon for groomsmen

Other payments:
Formal wear for groomsmen and gowns for the bridesmaids should be paid for by themselves
