No that would be Gypsys, it would be considered an insult to the daughter and her family to NOT pay for a lavish and over the top wedding, they take insults very seriously it would lead to very violent and nasty feuding between the families no doubt. A feud in Limerick over a schoolyard fight has involved the four biggest crime gangs in Limerick as a result.
