Default Re: Are large weddings worth the money?

$30,000 is a lot of money. Why exactly are YOU ranting about expensive weddings? You certainly have a point though.

I got married for around $10,000 (give or take a couple grand), had 150 people attend my wedding, had an awesome DJ (and therefore great reception), good food, OPEN BAR, and a nice ceremony.

Keep in mind the $30,000 includes my honeymoon, which was absolutely awesome (stayed at a 5 star property in Capri for 5 nights). It also includes the 5 days and nights we spent in southern Italy, also at a top notch hotel, with some day trips and lots of nice meals. The wedding itself (small service with a string quartet followed by cocktails, and then a 5 course dinner), probably cost about $2,500.

So you spent $10,000 on just one night. I spent $30,000 for 10 days in luxury in Italy. I'm not saying I did better- I'm just saying you're comparing apples and oranges.
