<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs a personal issue, almost everyone wishes to have a different or distinct wedding, which forces people to pour in a lot of resources planning their day. To some people, it is a competition between different brides and grooms to outsmart each other\u2019s wedding and bring new phenomena that no one has ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018Tying the knot\u2019 is a permanent agreement in which love birds pledge to be only separated by death, and a union of this magnitude is taken seriously. In terms of religion, the weds declare their commitment to each other in a chapel or a holy place while their deity and other prominent religious figures witness the ceremony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Traditionally, the whole clan is called to see the proceedings and give their blessings to usher the weds to a new family. These activities are done to honor the wedding ceremony, which means it is a special day. Outside of divorce and separation misfortunes, humans believe that death should be the only factor that destroys a marriage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
No one gets married while thinking of divorcing or falling in love with another person. Hence both the bride and groom are fully prepared to have the best day ever in their life. Because of this, huge finances are injected into planning this day of permanent union. Similar research carried out in 2018 among UK couples posited that 20% of them were willing to spend between 10 000 and 15 000 for their wedding. Around 19% noted that a wedding budget should be between 15 000 and 20 000 pounds [Source]<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2018, it was reported that the \u201caverage cost of UK weddings hits an all-time high at over \u00a332 000\u201d. The Independent reported that \u201cthe data found that the amount couples spend on their nuptials varies by region in the UK, with London showing the highest cost at an average \u00a341 521 – 52 percent more than the average UK salary\u201d [Source]<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Spending about 32 000 British Pounds for a ceremony of less than 24 hours might appear to be overspending and an overboard luxurious move. But in the UK, love birds are seen parting with these piles of pounds just to put rings on their fingers in front of family, friends, and colleagues [Source]<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n UK Couples involved in the study depicted how about 5 500 pounds are channeled towards getting a venue only [Source]<\/a>. According to Sarah Allard, an editor at Hitched.co.uk, \u201cIt\u2019s clear to see that the venue is the most important part of a bride\u2019s big day, with couples opting to spend 16 percent of their total budget on their favored place to say, \u2018I do.\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n Other expenses are incurred in catering, marquee hire, the convoy, clothing, food, and the honeymoon. The respondents highlighted the areas where they usually overspend on weddings. A third of them suggested that overspending is done on food and drinks, especially when guests flood the event, which happens more often. Some said they spent more than planned in catering for the guests and honeymoon activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One can get married for as little as \u00a350 in the UK, in which \u00a346 is paid for the ceremony and \u00a34 for the marriage or civil partnership certificate. NimbleFins gave a rundown of UK wedding costs in 2021. It was categorized in \u201clower range, median and upper range\u201d for all vital aspects of the ceremony, which include wedding reception and venue, catering (food and drink), dress, photography and video, entertainment, flowers, engagement, and wedding, among others [Source]<\/a>. The total wedding cost in the lower range amounted to \u00a36 275; the median is \u00a329 870, and the upper range is pegged at \u00a367 600. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These financial figures can feed a working-class family, fund a small start-up project and pay for someone\u2019s education career, but it can be blown away in a single ceremony by lovers. The Money Super Market organization argued that \u201cIf we look at the ratio of British salaries to average spend on weddings, it\u2019s clear that a large proportion of the country\u2019s income goes on the big day.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.politicsphere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/happy-wedding-time_t20_GgxpbE-1024x683.jpg\")
