weddings, people are spending huge amounts on marriages. Some people believe in the idea of an expensive and luxurious wedding, whereas others do not agree with

this

idea. In my opinion, it is not worth to spend a lot of

money

on marriage functions.

Firstly

, the wedding is all about two families getting together. It is necessary to make some arrangements for all the guests coming to the function

such

as a variety of options to eat and decorating the place.

However

, a line needs to be drawn in the amount that

one

is spending.

For example

, in India, people invite families who are not so close which results in an increase in the number of invitees. Apart from

this

, the

money

that is

spent on the dresses of the bride and groom is a waste of

money

. Especially, nowadays there are dresses which are worn only on the marriage day, as it becomes useless after the ceremony.

Secondly

, the concept of a destination wedding is meaningless. People spend extra cash on travel which is not just for the immediate family but

also

for the other guests. With many celebrities getting married fancily and luxuriously, the younger generation is getting highly influenced with

such

trends.

This

will result in extra burden to the parents.

For instance

, parents borrow

money

from banks or private

money

lenders just to fulfil the wishes of their son\daughter, and they end up paying back the

money

rest of their lives.

Hence

, knowing

one

's limit is extremely important and making sure they do not suffer in future because of a day's happiness. In conclusion, I believe spending

money

on wedding ceremonies is essential but

one

should be aware of his\her limits. Always better to plan a budget and follow the same.

Although

luxuries bring momentary happiness,

one

should not get carried away with it and think of long term joy.
