It is normal for the groom parents to pay for the honeymoon, but it is not normal for the attitude you got!
My inlaws paid for next to nothing, not that they could afford much because they took out a home equity loan for my SIL to get married 2 years before, so we got zip. My children will get equal, that is only fair.
I do think the wedding is very reasonable, no frills there and the honeymoon could be done cheaper. Maybe you can sit them down and say that all you can afford right now is $xxxx and you would be happy to pay for that much of a honeymoon, but you just can't afford and more than that right now. Giving at attitude back isn't going to help anyone.
