Reply With Quoteno I spent 60 dollars getting chinese tailor to handmake a traditional chinese dress and I was making a very very decent salary. Waste of money.

Spending your life savings on a wedding is retarded. Spending your parent's money on your wedding is pathetic. Spending your soon to be husband's money on a wedding is selfish and irresponsible.

Tell her you are going to buy a tux for 1000 instead of renting it and wait for her to tell you thats a waste of money. Then tell her you can wear a tux many times over but even if you got divorced and she remarried she would never wear that dress again.

True, since I proposed, my husband didn't have to waste money on a engagement ring. This western rule that you have to save so many month's salary on a engagement ring is ludicrous. Originally Posted by KelJu

We did a destination wedding. The total cost of the wedding, rings, dress, flights, all meals and drinks, and 7 night stay in Mexico was under $4500 and it was paid for before we left.
If sense were common, everyone would have it.

$9 grand? Fuck that! Especially for something that is only going to be worn once.
$250, tops. Including fitting and tailoring.

No fucking way!!! If the girl has that high of taste you better hope your rich. If not ran away as fast as you can, because she will suck you dry, and you will wake up one day and have 100k in credit card debt and your wife is fucking the pool boy

My wife's dress was made by someone in the Mexican community and I think it cost under 1000.00. I want to say 300.00 but I may be confusing that with the cake...
Alot of Catholics use a godparents system to pay for weddings so when you send out invitations the godparents are listed as a form of respect and there are godparents for everything:
shoes
bouquet
decorations
cake
the mass
etc.
etc.
etc.
more expensive things may have more than one set of godparents.
We paid for the rings, dress, and my suit (cheapo) on our own and everything else was the community.
Everything is reasonable as noone is wealthy in these areas but it ends up being a great community event. My father in law slaughtered two of his calves to make birria for the meal. Alcohol is sold at the reception which in turn pays for itself and the live music which is the biggest expense in a traditional Mexican wedding.
All the gifts tend to be handmade simple home goods like tortilla warming cloths, tortilla presses and things like that.Well hello Mister Fancypants. Well, I've got news for you pal, you ain't leadin' but two things, right now: Jack and shit... and Jack left town.

Yawn... not sure why you are resorting to ad hominum attacks. we are happily married. I think you got your feelings hurt because you may have wasted a lot of on an engagement ring like most westerners do. I think you're just jealous that he doesn't have to work and can focus full time on the family, staying in shape and racing mountain bikes. He is a member of this forum and hangs out in the training section. See if you can guess who he is......Hint, he shaves his head, so no grey hairs, ( also in my profile pics) and you should know by now a woman who does the proposing is not the type to nag, we don't bother asking someone to do something for us, we just do it.....

Normal is relative. If you're Michael Jordan then $9K on a wedding dress is like you or me paying, what, $7.99? Originally Posted by soxmuscle

Whatever the wedding costs ( all things included) it pales to what the divorce will cost you. Divorce is much more expensive and much more difficult to facilitate.....they never tell you that before the wedding, I wonder why?
