Weddings are becoming more expensive, with families often spending large amounts on venues, decorations, clothes, food and other arrangements. For families with limited income, this can create financial pressure and sometimes make marriage more difficult.
Some simple solutions could include smaller guest lists, simple venues, limiting unnecessary decorations, avoiding expensive gifts and focusing on the marriage rather than showing wealth. Families could also agree on a reasonable budget before making arrangements.
