Hi, Sorry you cannot recover the money incurred by you on your wife . Though your in-laws would not have spend even a single penny But your wife can still claim maintenance, accommodation, alimony etc. If she is agreeing for Divorce without taking any single penny from you it's better go for mutual divorce Thanks Advocate Ramit Sehrawat

Query perused. I would advise you to talk to your wife for seeking divorce by way of mutual consent. You can negotiate with her for giving your consent for the divorce. Though husband is legally bound to maintain her but in exceptional cases maintenance or alimony can be sought by husband from wife. For further consultancy and legal services you may contact us.

I'd say that there is no chance you can recover your expenses from your wife as once married, all expenses are generally treated as family expenses. However, there are ways to safeguard yourself from maintenance and alimony if your wife seems to be keen on getting a divorce. Further and better particulars are needed for an effective opinion.
