Yep.
I’ve got one friend who was quite well paid and went into noteworthy debt to pay for his amazing wedding ceremony. Divorced in six months.
My brother-in-law spent $5k on the entire wedding ceremony including outfits, the venue, and food and drinks for around 50 guests. That was about 15 years ago. Still together.
It’s not scientific, just an opinion: the more you spend on a wedding, the more you hope money will fix things.
Money can fix a leaky roof. People are inherently strange and problematic and messy inside, and keeping things ok between people takes a lot more than just money.
