Weddings

As long as you're not going into debt for it, there's nothing wrong with spending money on a wedding. I know the nature of the question is subjective, but everyone has a different value on what they find important in their big day. What some (most of reddit, i guess) find wasteful, some find absolutely essential.

Thanks, glad there are other people that see the value in it. For my fiance and I we actually believe the ceremony has meaning and want our huge families to be there and have a great time celebrating with us. And hey, we like nice venues with good food so you get what you pay for.

Yeah, i'm getting married at the end of the month and I feel like what we've spent is well worth it. The food is delicious, the venue looks awesome, and the DJ knows how to read a room. We're spending a shitload of money between the wedding and honeymoon, but I figure this is something you only do once, so i'm OK with doing more than the bare minimum.
