Nowadays, people are spending increasingly large amounts of money on their marriage parties. Many people feel large and expensive weddings cause problems for the bride and groom. Do you agree? Use personal examples in your response.

Weddings, undoubtedly, are becoming more lavish day by day. Some believe

this

marriage extravaganza causes financial burden and unnecessary stress on the

couples and I completely agree with

this

statement.

Firstly

, in order to afford grand weddings, new couples and their families normally undertake big loans or use their long-term savings.

This

is because by doing so, they feel integrated in their society and

hence

, they will not carry the stigma of being poor or stingy.

For instance

, when my cousin got married, her parents used all the money that they have been saving for years into her big day. Had they done a small marriage, depending on their affordability, that money could have been used in a more useful and productive way.

Secondly

, large parties come with plenty of stressful moments. In an aim to have everything perfectly set up in a short span of

brides and grooms do not enjoy these days as much as they should have been. To exemplify, my best friend who is

looking for perfect caterers along with event planners so that nothing goes amiss. Had she spent that
