Default cost to get married

whats the average cost of a wedding?

Basic church wedding and reception party with unlimited booze.
maybe something a bit fancier cause my g/f is the spoiled type.


could i compare the price to buying a 3 series BMW?

There's no estimate since you'll be paying for it for the rest of your life.

i cannot believe how expensive marriages are becoming. even funerals are going up in price. how can you put a price on death?

anyway, ryan was telling me that when him and shawn get married, they want to have a shotgun wedding at a male strip club.

definately.

personally I'd rather elope in vegas and get married by elvis. its way cheaper and we could use the money towards a car or a house or something a little more practical. of course finding a woman that wants to elope is the tough part. most women want to have that fairy tale wedding.

The trick is to find a girl with wealthy parents since technically the bride's family is supposed to pay.
