There are lists which provide the possible tasks for each party involved. However, there is always the personal element: whether they are willing to be involved, can afford it, or if it is otherwise appropriate. You will have to evaluate the situation before casting the responsibility in stone.

Traditionally the Groom's parents host the rehearsal dinner. However, nobody is "responsible" for paying anything they don't agree to pay. The couple should expect to have to pay for everything themselves, and if it works out that someone else volunteers to cover it, then great.

Well the person who asked then to come to dinner, Eg. The girfriends parents ask the boyfriends parents out for dinner they should pay unless they decide to spilt the cost.
No it is not mandatory. Some parents (could be the bride to be's parents) may have the groom, bride, their parents and the wedding party out for dinner in the evening a few days before the wedding, but this is not mandatory either.
The wedding to do list for groom's parents include hosting the engagement party. They provide the couple with a list of guests and host the rehearsal dinner on the evening before the wedding. They may also contribute to some of the wedding expenses.
Usually the bride's parents will phone the groom's parents and the six of you would get together for either dinner at the bride's parent's home or, go out to a restaurant.
I'm looking for a guide that explains clearly what the responsibilties are for the grooms parents and for the brides parents. I want 1 thru 20 clearly so that there will not be any questions who does what!!!!
