A marriage between a Nouveau Riche family who want respect from the upper class and an Impoverished Patrician family. The tradeoff is obvious. The rich family climbs a few steps up the social ladder, and the impoverished family climbs out of the financial hole.
This can set up a number of plots. For one, it's likely to be an Arranged Marriage, in which case either the bride and/or groom is probably none too happy about it. Often we get a Runaway Bride, and all the subsequent adventures she has, or the wedding goes through, and we see the drama that can ensue from such a pairing.
This has been Truth in Television for centuries, but it became especially notorious during the Victorian Era/The Gilded Age when many British noble families were running out of money and married their sons to brides from families of American industrialists and businessmen (the most prominent example being Consuelo Vanderbilt and the Duke of Marlborough; in the same family, the match between Lord Randolph Churchill and American finance heiress Jennie Jerome produced Winston Churchill). These women were known derogatorily as "dollar princesses". The trope is also sometimes inverted in Continental European works when provincial Nouveau Riche males seek lovers/mistresses/courtesans from Impoverished Patrician families, either those who were born so or even women who have been married at some point in their past to a Blue Blood and so lay claim to a real or fictitious title.
Compare Gold Digger, Meal Ticket, Trophy Wife. Contrast Marry for Love, Unable to Support a Wife, Altar Diplomacy.

Heralds of Valdemar:
Kethry of the Vows and Honor trilogy has a vicious version of this in her backstory: when she was twelve years old, her brother decided to fix his Impoverished Patrician status by marrying her off against her will to a rich and ambitious merchant with a thing for little girls. Kethry's old nurse managed to help her escape, but unfortunately not before the wedding night.
The reasons and political maneuvering behind the various forms of Arranged Marriage among the nobility are a theme of Closer to Home. Many of the young ladies (and, more to the point, their parents) are hoping to land wealthy merchants who will parade them at social functions, instead of older nobles merely looking for someone to provide an heir and a spare. The main characters, members of the more sexually liberated Heralds, decide that something ought to be done about a culture that raises girls to aspire to no more than a good match.

Andor has this in spirit. Mon Mothma, who will someday go on to become more or less the Big Good of the Rebel Alliance, is a Senator first under the Republic and then the early days of the Empire who comes from a prestigious family with a history of being leaders and politicians, which practically makes her nobility on her home world. During the events of Andor, in order to continue discretely channeling funds to the nascent rebellion, Mothma has to enlist the aid of an extremely wealthy man from her world who is about halfway between a Morally Bankrupt Banker and a gangster. Said man suggests that Mothma arrange an... introduction between his son and Mothma's daughter, who are just about the same age. Their planet has a long history of arranging marriages between prominent families when the children are young, a tradition Mothma despises (she herself was forced into an arranged marriage with her Upper-Class Twit husband Perrin when they were fifteen, and the first season shows their relationship as an utter failure), and she knows that it amounts to case of this trope. She will gain his exorbitant wealth and connections that allow her to bypass Imperial regulations on moving money around, he will gain her family's legitimacy and reputation. Very reluctantly she has the two meet at a party, and by the end of the season the two teens are apparently bethrothed.

In Brass, Bradley Hardacre is a parody of the classic Nouveau Riche businessman who tries to use marriage as a path into the aristocracy. His wife, Lady Patience, is evidently from a noble family, giving her a courtesy title, and their marriage is certainly no love match. Furthermore, in the course of the series, he persuades his daughter Isobel to marry an aged and depraved aristocrat in the hope that this will help him acquire a title of his own.

In The First Man In Rome, the marriage between Gaius Marius and Julia Caesaris Major is this. The Julii Caesar are an Impoverished Patrician family who need money to ensure their sons can become senators and their daughters can have sizable dowries to make decent marriages. Marius, on the other hand, is very wealthy but his plebeian status means he can only go so far in the patrician-dominated senate. In exchange for bankrolling his brothers-in-law's political careers and sister-in-law's dowry, Marius would gain a a patrician wife and through her, acceptance in the highest levels of politics. Julia and Marius fell in love immediately, though, so it all worked out.

Although technically not "nobility", Pete Campbell of Mad Men definitely qualifies as an Impoverished Patrician - despite being able to trace his ancestry to the original Dutch settlers on Manhattan (except perhaps for Virginia planters and Boston Brahmins, you really can't get any more Blue Blood than that in America!), and his family on his mother's side (the Dyckmans) once owning half of Upper Manhattan,note There really was a Dyckman family that owned half of Upper Manhattan, by the way; Dyckman Street in Inwood (waaaaayyy at the north end of Manhattan Island) is named for them. by 1960 the Campbells are in serious financial trouble on account of his grandfather's bad investments in the 1920s and his father's more recent profligacy. So he marries Trudy Vogel, the daughter of a self-made executive at pharmaceutical firm Richardson-Vicks (the guys who make Clearasil anti-acne cream - the critical account that makes Pete so attractive to Sterling Cooper - as well as, well, Vicks. Like NyQuill and VapoRub).note Ironically, Trudy is played by Alison Brie, who is, um, able to trace her ancestry to the original Dutch settlers on Manhattan—she's a Schermerhorn, related to the likes of Caroline Schermerhorn Astor and none other than Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This has... mixed results.

In Medici, Giovanni de' Medici, who came up from the bottom, marries off his elder son Cosimo to Contessina de' Bardi, a noblewoman, who is the daughter of an Impoverished Patrician. Her father made some bad investments and is now forced to give his daughter away for a fraction of what he would otherwise get. Meanwhile, Giovanni sees this as an opportunity to legitimize his House as a noble family. While Contessina's father hopes his daughter will serve as his eyes and ears in the Medici camp, Cosimo makes it clear that he expects his wife to be loyal to him and to the Medici, no one else.

In Emma: A Victorian Romance, this is the main reason Viscount Campbell approves his daughter Eleanor's engagement to William Jones despite his disdain for anyone who is not an aristocrat (the Joneses are wealthy merchants, and relative newcomers to high society). There is a great deal of gossip about the Jones family fortune and the Campbell family's financial straits at the party celebrating their engagement.

In the backstory to Harry Potter, impoverished pureblood witch Merope Gaunt left her degenerate family to marry a wealthy Muggle, Tom Riddle Senior, whom she'd drugged with a Love Potion. This...didn't work out. Her husband abandoned her once she stopped doping him, so she quickly ended up destitute and alone, and her remaining relatives never saw any of the Riddle family's wealth either. Ultimately, instead of rejuvenating the Gaunt family's wealth, marrying outside Blue Blood rejuvenated their bloodline, allowing their son to become one of the most powerful wizards of all time instead of being pathetically inbred. Unfortunately, this son turned out to be Tom Riddle Junior, also known as Lord Voldemort. He was at least as depraved as his ancestors — both because of his family's prior mental illness due to inbreeding, and because he grew up in a loveless orphanage after Merope died giving birth to him. Voldemort also developed ideas on pureblood supremacism akin to his maternal family's attitudes, apparently unaware of how his Muggle parentage benefited him.

In Corpse Bride, Victor's parents have money and are extremely excited to get a chance to be part of the nobility. Victoria's parents are noble and are absolutely disgusted that marrying her off to the Nouveau Riche is the only way to get out of their perpetual poverty — they even acknowledge that the only thing that would be worse would be marrying someone else poor. However, once Victor and Victoria meet, they like each other for other reasons.
Later on, Victoria's parents find a lesser nobleman with almost as much money as Victor's family and decide to switch to him instead - except he's a gold-digging serial killer.

Only in later books is it revealed (or Retconned) that the Vimes family was nobility before being stripped of their titles and money for killing the last king of Ankh-Morpork, and Vimes becomes a Duke only some time after he's married.
Referenced in The Truth, when William separates himself from his father by using the dwarf tradition of repaying the costs of his childhood.:

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay mentions that this is common in The Empire, and less so in Bretonnia. In The Empire, noble titles can be bought and sold, and becoming nobility through marrying is neither uncommon nor particularly scandalous. In Bretonnia, where in order to be a noble all your grandparents must also have been nobles, only truly desperate nobles or lesser sons with little prospect of an inheritance marry merchants because none of their children will be nobles and thus able to carry on the family name.

The World of the Five Gods book Penric's Demon starts with an example on the lower end of the spectrum. Not only is the Barony of kin Jurald a petty mountain vale where the local sports include poaching, archery, and tax evasion; but what the last head of the family did not blow on gambling and drink, the current one is bleeding away with his susceptibility to "any pious beggar, be they in rags or temple robes." Therefore, Penric kin Jurald, younger brother to the incumbent, was on his way down the road to make his betrothal to the daughter of a prosperous cheese merchant in town official when the plot started.

An increasing trend of this comes up as a background detail of the Vorkosigan Saga as the series progresses, as the aristocracy - sorry, warrior caste - of Barrayar, the Vor, have just spent the last generation taking advantage of Uterine Replicator technology to selectively produce sons, and many Vor families are also seeing fortunes dwindle as the economy changes from contact with galactic society.
Emperor Gregor's marriage to Laisa Toscane of Komarr has undertones of this. The Emperor is not an Impoverished Patrician, but the merchant fleets of the Toscanes deal in just that much wealth to add some of that flavor to their relationship. Taxes from Komarr are an incredibly significant income stream for the Barrayaran Imperium.

A Brother's Price:
Cullen's mothers had a brother who was married off for money and status to the princesses' mothers — and ended up killed as part of a political game, which Cullen's mothers have regretted since, one of them calling their late brother a sacrificial lamb. The Whistlers couldn't pay the price that Cullen normally would have gotten, but Cullen's eldest sister agrees to the price anyway, stating that she wants Cullen to be happy and doesn't want to bear the same regrets their mothers do.
Played straight with the marriage offer of the Porters, who are nobility, but never married a royal prince, which they seek to amend by marrying a descendant of Prince Alannon, even though he may be poorer than they are. It's also part of their political scheming. They already placed themselves in the line of succession of the monarchy and the wealth and titles that come with it by having their brother marry the Princesses, but marrying a descendant of a former prince would make their claim on the monarchy twofold if something were to happen to the Princesses — a tragedy they just so happen to be planning.

Social Climber George Edwards (the son of a successful but despised Snake Oil Salesman) is willing to overlook her past (and pay her father's debts) if marrying her will get him accepted into high society. Clara is already secretly married, and commits suicide after being exposed as one of the book's villains.

One of these was set up in the backstory of Counselors and Kings, in the form of the marriage arrangement between Keturah (a powerful wizardess and rising star in The Magocracy of Halruaa who had nonetheless yet to accrue a significant fortune or powerbase) and Dhamari (a less talented wizard who was not considered nobility because he came from a family of Muggles, despite the fact that said family were very successful and wealthy merchants). However, this was just a smokescreen for Dhamari and his ally, Kiva, to get a child of Keturah's who they could control.

Persuasion:
Mr. William Elliot of the Kellynch family and a future baronet (Sir Walter's heir presumptive) married a low-born woman from a butcher's family who was vastly rich. He wanted to be independent and get wealthy quickly, and when he was young, he did not value the baronetcy and his Blue Blood connections a lot. His wife loved him very much, but he didn't love her at all. It's implied he treated her rather harshly, if not outright cruelly. Moreover, Mr Elliot doesn't mix with her family after her death, so they gained very little from this marriage while Mr Elliot was all take and no give.
Anne Elliot fell for Captain Wentworth before the start of the plot. Her friends and aristocratic family tell her to reject him because he's poor. A few years on, he's risen up through the ranks of the navy and made quite a lot of money, while Sir Walter Elliot is deep in debts. However, the marriage of Captain Wentworth and Anne Elliot relies on their love, and he doesn't care much for her coming from Blue Blood and she doesn't really care about his great wealth beyond being happy that they can afford to get married and have a comfortable income.

In Princess Maker 2, the Player Character and the Daughter can be considered as local nobility since the Father is the Hero who saved the Realm years ago; if the Daughter defeats a Young Dragon from the Western Desert, he will fall in Love at First Punch with her, so he and his grandfather will later offer the Father 10,000G as engagement gift. If the player engages the daughter to the Young Dragon, the player can kiss their money problems goodbye from then on. If the Daughter has no other prospect love interest, they get married and it's all but stated that, despite the groom's wimpiness, they're more or less happy in the end. However, if the Daughter has the Prince of the Realm as a suitor, she'll marry him instead and become Queen, leaving the Dragon heartbroken.

Subverted in Men at Arms with Sam Vimes (then poor and a common copper) marrying Sybil Ramkin (the richest and highest-titled lady in Ankh-Morpork). Only in later books is it revealed (or Retconned) that the Vimes family was nobility before being stripped of their titles and money for killing the last king of Ankh-Morpork, and Vimes becomes a Duke only some time after he's married.

The laotong relationship in Snow Flower and the Secret Fan ends up serving this purpose between the families of two little girls, who will be bound as dear friends for the rest of their lives. Lily's family (that of the narrator) is rich, ascending farmers; Snow Flower's family is high-ranking and aristocratic, but penniless. Lily's family learns elegant manners from Snow Flower; Snow Flower prepares for her descent into the working class with her time spent at Lily's.

Gosford Park:
Sir William McCordle was a wealthy industrialist who married Lady Sylvia, the daughter of an Earl whose family was impoverished. Sir William pays an allowance to his wife's aunt, Constance, Countess of Trentham; he expresses his intention to stop paying this money before he is murdered.
The Honourable Freddie Nesbitt married his wife, Mabel, who was the daughter of a glove manufacturer. Their marriage isn't happy.

Code Geass: Suggested to be the reason behind the Ashford family's attempts at setting up Milly with various suitors. The Ashfords are very rich but lost most of their political standing after the murder of Marianne, one of the Emperor's wives and Lelouch and Nunnally's mother, as she was the noblewoman they threw their support behind. The man Milly ultimately gets engaged to, Earl Lloyd Asplund, is technically nobility but not very wealthy and works as an engineer. Subverted in that Lloyd doesn't give a damn about money, he just wants to inherit the 1st-generation Knightmare Frame the Ashfords happen to own. When Milly breaks the engagement later in the series, he doesn't care at all.

In The Leopard Don Fabrizio, a Sicilian Prince, arranges a marriage for his nephew, an impoverished princeling with the daughter of a Nouveau Riche (whose father was one of his peasants). Fortunately the betrothed are besotted with each other, and the practical advantages of the marriage are a great element of their infatuation.

In Arcia Chronicles, everyone thinks that this is the reason why Alexander (the king's youngest brother) marries Jacqueline re Flo (daughter and sole heir of the wealthy late King Maker). However, in reality, he does it mainly to protect his Unlucky Childhood Friend from other, less scrupulous suitors.

In Sense and Sensibility, Willoughby marries Miss Gray. He's a gentleman (and a scoundrel) of the landed gentry with a mansion house called Combe Magna, and he will inherit another house from his childless kinswoman, Mrs. Smith. However, he lives extravagantly and is deep in debts. Miss Gray has a dowry of fifty thousand pounds, which makes her the wealthiest heiress in Jane Austen's 'verse. Her feelings for him are not entirely clear, but he was a fashionable, handsome man, and she wanted to get married so she could part with her guardians with whom she didn't get along. Willoughby claims he loves Marianne Dashwood, who is lovely, intelligent, and passionate, but poor as a church mouse; Miss Gray, being rather plain, is understandably jealous, but it's only Willoughby's words. They are not an ideal couple but the narrator says at the end of the book that they were not always unhappy together.

The French Lieutenant's Woman: Ernestina Freeman is the only daughter of a rich industrialist and fabulously wealthy. She's engaged to Charles Smithson who is from aristocratic circles. He's not poor though and actually a future heir to his uncle's house and title. Ernestina chooses Charles and cleverly manages to attract him, and he proposes. Turns out Charles' uncle marries and has a son of his own, so Charles is left much poorer than presumed. He's now expected to "deserve" Ernestina's dowry and correctly assumes Mr Freeman will want him to be involved in the family business. Charles doesn't show it, but his gentleman's honour is insulted. In the ending that turns out to be Charles' imagination, Charles expects that his resentment will gradually vanish and that he'll find his new responsibilities interesting. Their marriage is supposed to be this trope as well as marrying for love. In reality, Charles breaks the engagement off, mainly because of his infatuation and relationship with Sarah, the titular French lieutenant's woman.

The first Flashman book averts this, then fulfills it. Harry Flashman is first shown as a well-to-do member of the gentry who is forced to marry a Scottish merchant's daughter who he seduced for her beauty, not money. Later on, his father reveals he has squandered what is left of the family fortune, leaving Harry totally dependent on his wife's money. In a later book, he refers to her as a 'Scotch pension", a Victorian expression referring to this trope.

It is heavily implied in An Inspector Calls that Sheila is probably engaged to Gerald (who is the son of Lord and Lady Croft) because of this, but her anger towards his revealed adultery with another woman shows that she probably loved him regardless of his family's history. Her father, Mr. Birling, shows delight at the news of the engagement; Gerald's father owns a rival manufacturing company and Birling hopes the marriage will make them merge, and possibly earn him a knighthood from the King. When his daughter says that she doesn't want to marry Gerald after the news, Birling is the first person to defend him, pointing out that many men in high authority are womanizers and that she's just overreacting, hoping to keep the couple together.

Crash Landing on You has a variation. The Ris are not nobility in the traditional sense, but instead a very high-ranking military family with a lot of clout (which may as well make them nobility in authoritarian North Korea). In episode 6 it is explicitly stated that they are marrying Jeong-hyuk to Dan, a department store heiress, for money.

In The Secret Agreement, this is the idea behind the very sudden wedding between Iori and Hisayo. The well-respected Hanayashiki family arranges a marriage with the wealthy Yonekura family to restore their fortunes. The Hanayashikis are guaranteed financial security and the Yonekuras benefit from the Hanayashiki reputation. The groom stays for the ceremony but ends up running away that night, chasing after his lover. The remaining family members seem to get along, however, and still consider it a legitimate alliance.

The trope is all over the place in Downton Abbey:
Just to start with, it forms the backstory of the show. Lord Grantham went to New York to find his bride; he found Cora Levinson, daughter of a dry-goods magnate from Cincinnati. A significant fraction of the first season's drama comes from the fact that, at the old Earl's insistence, Cora's money was entailed to the estate - i.e. it can't be separated from the land and title. 30 years later, they only have daughters (outside a few ancient, mostly Scottish oddities, British noble titles are very strictly part of the Heir Club for Men), and thus the family is very anxious about what will happen to the daughters.note Irony of ironies, entail would be abolished thirteen years later. Fortunately for Robert and Cora, though, they ended up falling (and, somewhat more remarkably, staying) deeply in love with each other after the wedding (well, he did; she loved him already).
Lord Grantham's sister, Lady Rosamund, was married to a Mr. Marmaduke Painswick, a very wealthy but untitled banker whose grandfather was a self-made manufacturer (sure, his grandmother's father was a baronet, but that only goes so far). As the Dowager Countess put it, he wasn't quite a "rough diamond," "just cut and polished relatively recently."
In Series 2, Lord Grantham's eldest daughter, Lady Mary, is courted by a self-made newspaperman, Sir Richard Carlisle. Sir Richard, rather a rough diamond but very rich and very powerful (he knows everything that happens in Britain) and well in line for a peerage during the next Tory government, hopes that a marriage to an earl's daughter would ease his path to the upper crust. However, it eventually proves that he and Lady Mary simply don't work as a couple, so this is, essentially, a subversion.
In Series 3, Matthew - a middle-class solicitor, the heir-presumptive to the title and estate, and by this point Lady Mary's husband - comes into money just as Lord Grantham finds out that he had lost everything (being a bit of a fool in financial matters, he had put the whole fortune in one basket, which was nationalised by the Canadian government). However, Matthew's new money comes from Mr. Reginald Swire, the father of his late fiancée, Lavinia Swire (Mr Swire himself was, like Matthew, a solicitor; his brother was apparently a Liberal minister and linked to the Marconi scandal); Matthew, who blamed himself and his happiness with Mary for Lavinia's death, feels guilty taking Mr Swire's money. Commence half a series' worth of conflict.
The old, widowed, and impoverished Lord Aysgarth (whose title, although "merely" a barony, is apparently very old) tries to pull this on Martha Levinson; she declines, saying she "ha[s] no interest in being a 'great lady,'" but offers to invite him to Newport so he can meet some old rich American widows who do. His daughter, Madeleine, has more success with Harold Levinson, but he eventually proves as savvy as his mother. In the end, they exchange You Are Better Than You Think You Are speeches and part as friends.
