the whole idea is just a rip off!! why cant people use what they have? I financed my wedding from my pocket. I never asked anyone for a cent because if they help you marry will they maintain the wife for you??????. Its not about money coz I didnt spend much ...( ok I know thats relative..) but its possible to do a simple wedding with 100K.

I am in one committee now and they are even calling you to pay the pledges. its like a debt.. Its meant to be voluntary.

I have a circle of close friends who would offend me if they didn't inform me they were planning a wedding,In this group I will offer to help with something,say like hire/provide a car to carry his pops during the ceremony etc.

Outside this group,I really would rather nobody asked me to contribute to a wedding,I have insurance to pay my hosi bills etc,so I don't see the investment point here.

When asked by a colleagues,acquintances and pub friends for mchango for whatever causes,I am always happy to part with a lose 200 to 1,000,no strings. I also don't join their committees.


I've noticed the youth in particular coming in to a workplace with a completely outsized notion of their own value and importance... just a thinly-veiled arrogance. May be the credit crunch induced recession is whats needed to remind us all about the value of hard work.... By Anonymous

Classic example,a pal invited me to be in his brother-in-law's wedding committee. 2nd meeting,dude chomoa's a budget of 1metre which included everything ata his and her's underwear. I discovered I had some outstanding 'work' on my house and dropped out of the committee.

Lets not mix needs and wants. A wedding is something that should pay for from your pocket unless you want others to help you with other 'services' once you are married.
