How much can you afford? Don't go all crazy on a wedding if you don't have the $$$.

atot answer


depends on if you buy the bride from russia or asia. Bride cost + pharmacology + detention will end up costing quiete a bit over the lifetime of your investment.



real answer is over 50k excluding the trip. Wife was the only daughter and her mom went apeshit on a society wedding. Fucking wedding planner drove me crazy and I had to greet so many people I barely got to eat.

25k for the first one...

Haven't paid for the 2nd one yet but this one is infinitely better and doesn't want a huge wedding.

After we lived together for a year, Revenue Canada declared us common law.

Cost about $1k all in. Had to elope since marriage was not legal in our state at the time.

Around $20-25k in 1993 for my first marriage, did the second one at the court house so it was only about $500 in bands and $50-100 for the fees.

We had a nice dinner and went to a nice bed and breakfast that weekend.

I am getting ready to marry again. We are going to do a ceremony, but since we are both in our 40's it will be small, maybe 20-30 people tops. I can't see it being more than $5-10k.
