Tying the knot and paying the bill

What is it with life that everything seems to be greased with money? Sitting in a punjabi wedding last saturday, i could not help thinking OMG, how much this wedding would have cost the couple. How long ago would they have started saving? and now to only blow it all off one day? Really? did our ancestors come up with the idea of a wedding just to make us poorer? Many crazy things wondered in my head as i could no longer tolerate the depth of the boredom i was drowning in.

I m not against marriage, No i m definitely not, i would like a simple wedding, a decent reception and of cos i definitely need an awesome photographer to capture the moments. So anyway, why does it have to go the extent of one has to take a loan to throw such a bash? I wonder are people falling for the kind of marriages u see in a movie? Its scary to see how the marriage institution has driven to the stop called expense and is only digging itself way deeper into it.

Not being a hypocrite or anything, i still enjoy looking people's wedding photos on Facebook, what i m trying to say is to try doing it to what u can afford, why spend £35 per head for a wedding lunch, when u cant afford a £5 lunch on a normal weekday...


I leave this atrocity for now, but i wanted to get back into writting, and i will try to write a little more often than 6 months once.
