Marriage

Wedding,
I think its a good thing to have but is it a bit too early to think about it?
I'm like only 18 but do I have to consider this yet?
I don't think so but because a friend of mine brought this up, I guess I'll talk about it.

Some say their wedding is a once in a life time thing and should be lar~~~(Hehe)
Some want to have a grand wedding,
Some would like to have a simple wedding,
Some even consider having a unique wedding for example having it in space or under ther sea.

Well let's look into the simple wedding first.
Let's see, the dinner before the wedding, 10 tables should be enough, 4 tables for the brides family, 4 tables for the grooms family and a table each for friends of the bride & groom.
Estimated cost is around (RM500per table) 10xRM500= RM 5000
Pre-wedding stuff: clothes, photoshoot included = RM 9000
Wedding Day: cathedral, limo rental and other stuff = around RM 10000
After wedding: Lunch atleast = RM 3000 for 100 people.( Plus stupid 3-storey high cake[plastic cheaper]).
Wedding night Dinner = another RM6000(10xRM600)[better food] + ang pow for younger siblings and cousins RM 1000.
Total cost for normal wedding = 5000+9000+10000+3000+6000+1000 = RM34,000

With dat as an estimated guide for a normal wedding! Do you think we can afford it now??? NOPE!!!!

Imagine what a Grand wedding might cost? My guess is around RM 40,000~RM 90,000! Where find soo much $$$ wor? Print money meh? Start saving RM 10 a day now also need save 9,000 days! That roughly 24 years from now! I'd be like 42 before i can afford to get married in a grand fashion!

Now imagine an unique wedding in space, costing atleast RM 3,000,000~ RM 5,000,000! Now that's crazy!!!!!
A wedding under the sea might not cost that much maybe around RM 40k?

Well I can say to my friend if he thinks that he can have his wedding at a beach for RM15,000, he is DREAMING!!!!! Buy da cake & wedding cloths also maybe not enough!

Soo think twice before saying you want to get married and the way u want to be married! It's no easy feat!
