Sick suff. My only hope is that those averages are misleading in that they are forced to factor in that small percentage of embarrasingly wealthy people who spend hundreds of thousands.

I know that's probably wishful thinking though.

I work with a guy who started a Wedding fund for his daughter over 20 years ago . . . he probably has well over $30,000 saved....crazy stuff! I hope she takes the money and buys a house instead of actually spending it all on the wedding!

so many people benefit when the rich spend their money. i don't begrudge it.

but i think that the folly of young men is demonstrated in what they will spend on a ring.
