According to a new survey on wedding prices by Priceline conducted with 1,016 adults over age 21 around the country, wedding attendees are spending upwards of $600 big ones to do all the wedding-related activities, including bachelorette or bachelor parties, a wedding shower, an engagement party, hotel room, travel expenses, engagement gift, and a wedding gift.
coming up with the perfect guest list for your wedding takes time. It can get messy, especially if outsiders are involved in the planning or contributing financially. Not to say you shouldn't get your families together to discuss who makes the cut because that's the best way to ensure no one gets blindsided by a snub. But once you've figured out who gets a say on who gets a seat at a beautifully adorned table, then you can breathe a sigh of relief. Because once the drafts are completed and the final list is so good it could be laminated, there should be no more problems, right?
Most people would travel for the actual wedding. The survey found that 47 percent of people who flew for a wedding just wanted an excuse to travel. Another group, 67 percent traveled for the wedding and returned home.
the survey also found that most people attend an average of three weddings a year, which can cost about $900 per wedding. So it's no wonder the NO piles are getting bigger. Many are opting to skip the entire affair when it becomes too expensive.
