Your
wedding, in fact, exists to support the countless millions who make their
living in the enormous
wedding industry. These include
photographers, who in some cases make as much as $50,000 per event, caterers,
djs,
bands,
florists,
stylists,
dress makers,
hotels, wedding planners and other scam artists.
They will tell you that they just want to make this a great day. As one of these people (or I am until I get another job) I know for a fact that these people don't care about your
special day, which is what these people invariably call you wedding, they care about your
money.
They will tell you that you should spend lots of money because this is the most
important day of
your life and it will only happen once. Of course, this is a lie. They say these things because they want to put their kids through
college. So, the point is,
I'd elope if I were you.
