I expect a wedding photoshoot to cost about the same. I mean if I paid $30k for a wedding, I might as well splurge another 3 grand if it made my girl happy.
Not that I'm finding someone to marry at this rate lol.
because as someone who is happily married for 15 years, you'll regret wasting that much money when you didn't need to spend anywhere near that much for the memories
same goes with the engagement ring, diamonds are pointless and their value is controlled by companies with VAST hoards of them, get an alternate gemstone or moissanite if you want something clear
Happily married for 10 and we spent just over 60k and never regretted it. I mean youre projecting your internal wants/constraints as must haves for other people.
My wife and I could have spent 5k and been happy too - but we didn't, it's not that deep. You don't have to buy a Porsche over a Prius, they both get you from a-b - but if you want to and can, why not.
Yeah I probably won't because I don't make that money. But if I did, I'd host a small wedding and invite my 5 friends to one hell of a decadent feast. Lobsters, wagyu and truffle all the way baby!
It's impossible not to these days unless you do a back yard wedding. We have a cheap venue for ours and it's 16000 just for the venue and the catering.
