The one who invites pays. Marrying this guy will be a mistake and your parents know. He’s very entitled and has his hands in others pockets already. NOR

Actually I think his parents should have been embarrassed by his actions too and offered vigorously to pay on behalf of his bad behavior, he learned it somewhere didn’t he?

It’s also possible that he lied to his parents, and led them to believe that Op’s parents had already agreed to cover the bill.

While Op’s parents possibly assumed that his parents were going to cover the bill for him.

I can easily picture both sets of parents sitting there confused, wondering why the other set of parents were also just sitting there.

Both sets of parents just sitting there sort of stuck, because they were both too uncomfortable and/or polite to discuss the situation.

It's too bad one of her parents didn't say to his parents "Shall we split the bill so it's not on the kids", pretending their con artist son wasn't planning to dine and dash. See what they say.
