[quote=Anonymous]I think family expectations and "etiquette" go out the window when people have these kind of weddings. Same goes for weddings where you expected to fly and then drive to some remote location. If your family dumps or shuns you for declining or only sending one person, then it's time to really figure out what kind of relationship you even want with them. The sad thing is I think I read study a while back that couples that have the most expensive and the most involved/demanding weddings (destination and/or an ordeal to get there and multiple obligations) are even more likely to get divorced than the general population. It makes sense when if they are spending above their means or making massive demands on guests. Empathy and being financially tuned in and pretty important in a marriage. I think destination weddings are fine if they elope or pay for the guests who want to be there and cannot afford it.[/quote]
