[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in DC, which has a lot of housing- and job-insecure people. While I personally could afford to blow $60k on a wedding, I would feel morally bankrupt to do so. I would have to do a lot of mental gymnastics about supporting the livelihoods of service workers when I know that so much of the cost ends up in the pockets of venue owners and whatnot. I've also never attended a wedding where I thought the expense was worth the guest experience. I guess I just can't appreciate the value of pretty flowers.[/quote] Is that guilt specific to wedding spending? What about spending more on a house than you absolutely need? Or a car, vacation, etc?[/quote] PP here - and actually a lot of wedding vendors are small businesses (photographers, DJs, hair/makeup ppl etc)[/quote]
