poliphiloOne of the seven daughters from four doors down was getting married yesterday. They had two stretch limos, plus the snazzy little roadster in which the bride travelled.
Ailz tells me the average cost of a British wedding is £25,000.

At least some of this is due to the extortionate prices that venues, caterers, printers etc charge the moment the word "wedding" is mentioned. Fortunately for parents, these days it's usual for the couple to pay for most of the wedding.
