[quote=Anonymous]I strongly dislike how weddings have become so expensive. Many people feel social pressure to hold one and a lot of people go into debt for it or use savings for one instead of paying down debt or buying a home. The entire culture is out of control in the US. *If people didn’t go into debt or make huge financial sacrifices, I’d think differently, but that’s not the reality in the US. I also know people that move forward with a wedding after getting cold feet for legitimate concerns but go forward with it because it’s so hard to stop once in motion. And those just end up in a divorce later. I also HATE what people expect a guest or someone in the wedding party to spend to participate. I’ve known countless people over the years that expect a bridesmaid to attend a bachelor party, shower and the wedding day in another state or country plus buy expensive dresses and spend money on hair and makeup. 54% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, 47% of millennials own a home, and debt is at an all time high. So I get your frustration.[/quote]
