Idk. My bf just said that shes upset when he told her that he's getting married. That he wont be able to help them as much because he wants to save up for my bf and I to buy a house together.

This is a problem.
You should ask him if his mom's getting upset has any influence on the two of you getting married and his plans to still cut back helping them financially so you both can buy a house.
I will share something which recently happened.....
a woman I know and her husband got a divorce. The husband is my nephew. Well, when they were married they helped his mother and father in law financially on a monthly basis for years. After the divorce, however, that stopped. The ex-wife, who wanted the divorce, was no longer able to help them when she was on her own. So because of that, her own parents have nothing to do with her. They are still speaking and on good terms with their daughter's ex. But because they blame their daughter for divorcing him which led to them not receiving anymore financial assistance, they treat her like this.
I know this is not what is going on with you exactly. I just wanted to let you know that if the mother and father can cut off their own daughter because of being financially dependent on them, there may really be an issue once the two of you get married and they are not being helped as much by their son. Money does strange things to people.
Just something to be aware of. Not trying to scare you. When two people who are in love want to get married and share it with their parents, there is an expectation that the joy and happiness they feel will be felt by their own folks...and not by one of them getting upset over it.
Maybe if this hasn't been sprung on her, she would have reacted differently.
