One of our co-workers just got back from a destination wedding in Hawaii.  She wasn’t even in the bridal party but the total cost to her was still over $4k. We tried to tell her she needs to find new friends.  The thing is, she isn’t alone.  When you hear what weddings are costing nowadays, you might think twice before saying I do. Or, at the very least, you might just want to consider dwarf Elvis officiating in Vegas instead of the whole to-do.
