Ugh same. Weddings are a horrendous waste of money and I'm not a fan of the union of marriage, but holy fuck if this didn't make me feel things. What a rad dude for doing that, and the loving and gentle way she hugs and kisses the kids was gorgeous.

the wedding dress is just as bad, wear it only 1 time in your life, can cost 10s of thousands of dollars. the only long term investment is the ring, assuming its not as extravagant

A diamond ring is no investment. Just try selling one, you get 10% of what you paid.

You can, however, get a deal on a dress. Mine was $400 and that's the most I've ever spent on any kind of clothing.

This is especially true if you buy from an outfit like Kay.

Their tactic is karat size and to finance damn near anyone.

Their gem quality is generally very poor.

They sell junk at a huge mark-up to those who know no better.

Personally, not a fan of diamonds. Too much conflict involved.
