I can bring my wife to an annual conference and work pays for her meals but we always drive there so there is no flight charges. I think we do have one person come who flies in and brings his wife so I would assume that the company pays for both flights.
The conference is setup to encourage spousal attendance and they usually plan things for the wives (and one husband) to do during the day.
At other meetings though people occasionally bring their families but I would be shocked to learn that the company is paying for it.
