Weddings are expensive
It's true, they are and you had better be prepared to mortgage your house, even if you are planning your own weddig it would seem. Churches, accomodation, food, entertainment, suits etc. The list goes on and it costs a fortune.

Weddings are expensive, even if you decide to organise it all yourself. Why is it that everyone you deal with in the area of wedding and bridal services is just out to rip you off?

| 26-5-2008 | Weddings are so expensive because everyone has make theirs better than the last one they went to & don't have the sense to realise when things are getting out of hand! Just the stag & hen nights have escalated to weekends abroad in a few years.
It's the same with kid's birthday ...more | grumpyoldwoman |
| 16-5-2008 | Why is everything expensive? Produce us a list of 'things' that are cheap. A wedding can be as expensive as you want it to be.
How do you perceive your wedding to be? A couple get married, exquisite bash, 6 month down the road they split. | Karl |
| 15-5-2008 | Ok, heres what you should do, go abroad to get married. Getting married in this country is a rip off and anyone with a hand wants to put it in your pocket. Go abroad, get your relatives to pay for their own flights and if they wont then they just dont want to go to your wedding enough. People are...more | get in the real world |
| 24-3-2008 | I feel the same on this one. It's all one big money making scheme! It's the same as Valentine's day, Christmas, Easter etc. All everyone wants is a big portion of your bank balance. Nothing has any meaning anymore. I want to marry my fiance very much but I don't want a wedding. I jus...more | No Bridezilla Here |
| 27-2-2008 | As a woman in her 20s, I think weddings are such a huge waste of time! I can afford to have a big expensive do, but I choose not to - I find them so narcassistic, always about a woman who wants lots of people admiring her and her dress, and guess what - two years down the road, they want a divorce....more | Meg |
| 01-8-2007 | Our wedding was "expensive enough". It also meant that the following week we had to cancel the honey moon :o( I have one, very tearful wife today. :o( | Terry D |
| 26-7-2006 | You mean I have all this to look forward to? Cripes!
The troublesome 'child' sounds a bit like my sister in law. My husband's parents are constantly moving to cheaper houses in order to release equity. Unfortunately we're in pricey Berks, so they're having to move further from t...more | Attila the Mum |
| 24-7-2006 | Attila, we do already have a number of children from previous relationships, thankfully all but one are adults now (though you wouldn't know it at times with one of them. We do not have children together at this moment and have no intention at our ages to have any in the future, so 'kids par...more | JAS |
| 28-6-2006 | Careful JAS - it sounds like you are working up to your first domestic already! It's good to hear you had such a lovely time on the day though.
You should be warned - bad wedding guests are a practice run for dealing with snotty, ungrateful kids at your children's birthday parties later on....more | Attila the Mum |
| 27-6-2006 | Thank you all for your comments - even the horrible ones (the horrible ones lead me to believe even more that I have married the 'right guy' after all, even though I had no doubts in the first place!).
The wedding was fantastic, as was the honeymoon.
The gripe I have now is that a few so c...more | JAS |
| 22-6-2006 | Weddings are sometimes more expensive if you don't go through a planner because they can get deals from their business relationships. Finding good vendors is difficult at best. If you have time, making your own products can save you a bundle in labor costs. Many fancy invitations can be made fr...more | burgar |
| 29-5-2006 | Thanks Rob. It's always nice to to get the 'intelligent' angle and you are evidently a very chivalrous, caring gentleman; in fact I'm sure most women would consider you a real catch... not. When exactly is a woman's sell by date? You sound like a real authority on such matters. | Attila the Mum |
