I don't know maybe I am just too much of a realist when it comes to these matters but I don't want to start my married life in the hole financially especially in these uncertain times. That money could go to many more beneficial things for my wife and I other than impressing our friends with a huge wedding.
I spent 15k on my wedding out of my own pocket and to be honest even though I had the money and wanted my wife to be happy I saw it as a waste of money better spent on other things.
Generally speaking I agree, but this...

...is probably true. Blame it on inflation but it seems like a 15k wedding in the 90's is a 30k wedding now.
Anyway, if they've got the money, just let them be. Do like Eddie and enjoy the open bar.
[edit] Congrats...I think.
