    oh my gosh, that is the price of my HOUSE.
    It was a waste of $

    To add fuel to the fire I have an mfp wife whose rent I paid too. Damn lockdowns

    This seems like a bargain. MFP wives are superior.

    Hi I got married in 2013, 8 years ago at age 51. It cost about £450 including ring, dress which was a beautiful vintage short 50s style which cost £50 and a small family gathering at home after. It was a lovely day and didn't cost the earth. I am in UK.

    The theory, actually a hypothesis, may be the younger you are the more (maybe less) you spend on weddings?

    100% would be able to spend more if my husband and I would have waited to get married, but 100% would have done a super small destination wedding and spent less if we were to redo it. I hated people looking at me and was really overwhelmed by the event.

    Was 25 when married in 2011. Not including rings, wedding and honeymoon was about $10k US.

    How old are you, when did you get married and how much did your wedding cost (please provide the country so I can convert to a standard currency). I have a theory which I want to prove or disprove, I'll post my theory and whether it has been proven or disproved when replies stop. Thanks!

    I'm 30. Got married in 2020. It cost $50 in the US.

    The fun ends when they speak to one another

    Was it a naked wedding considering the town charges 50 bucks for the ceremony

    Now 51
    Together since 1990, married in 2015
    Cost: around 5.000€ (+-5.800USD) for a reception and then a bbq with family and close friends.
    We were travelling a lot back then, the honeymoon was nothing special.
    And yes, we waited for 25 years - long story :lol:
