A bunch of money spent on a wedding is crazy to say the least. When I got married my wife's parents didn't have any money to pay for our wedding so we did it ourselves. We had to spend our money very carefully and plan way ahead. At the reception, we did not have a band and everyone loved it, just being able to talk and see family and friends they had not seen in a while. I would have loved to have had a DJ though but the finances said no and I was not going in debt for it. My parents took care of the cake and gave us a nice little sum for a wedding gift which we used to pay on our land.
My cousin who is a doctor and has a ton of money (both his parents are deceased and had large life insurance policies) got married to a female (not really fit to be called a lady). She had to have everything fancy which her parents paid for. The reception was a set down dinner complete with an open bar and a live band. The rehearsal dinner was top of the line as well. They spent a fortune on the wedding. Her dress alone probably cost more than my entire wedding. 3 years later, a nasty divorce and basically her parents just paid for one heck of a party.
My little girl says when she gets married she wants to take a hayride with the Kubota pulling them along!!!!!
