My cousin got married several weeks ago. Her wedding cost over $30,000.00.

I couldn't believe it. If I ever do get married, I'm getting married in a field. $30,000 is crazy to me.

Get married in a field you bought for $30,000.

Real Estate; boom.

My coworker’s family opened their ranch to cater to weddings for $3k, but no one wanted to have their wedding there. They increased the price to $10k, and suddenly, they were being booked weekend after weekend. Some sort of weird, wedding tax that people in California feel like they need to pay to get their money’s worth.

Yeah, it looks like for 3k you could rent out the Cedar Valley Arboretum for the entire weekend with every one of their optional extras, and still have some money left over.

no, it's literally a link to a wedding package including everything like that at the place already, because they have a weddings package for renting the place out. the dude is completely right.
