It's no secret that a wedding is expensive. Often even very expensive. And if you do not get married, you will not escape the expenses by attending the wedding of your best friend. Because yes, there is the wedding gift to offer and the bridesmaid dress to buy. And this role as bridesmaid could cost you as much as two weeks of vacation.
We would love to continue complaining about the price of the weddings, but in the end, we would be willing to invest a substantial sum to make the wedding of our loved ones perfect.
A study of the British stores One4all carried out on 2000 people, reveals how much the British would be willing to spend for the wedding of a close relative, counting the price of the trip to the outfit, going by way of beauty. The answer is clear: the British do not hesitate to spend without counting to make the marriage of their loved ones the best day of their lives.
According to the study, the vast majority would be willing to travel more than 1800 km to attend a wedding, while 31% of them would be happy to travel abroad for the occasion.
The study also shows that our neighbors see no problem in spending around 962 euros as a guest at a wedding. Even though it sounds like a slightly high sum to spend on that distant cousin you've probably seen three times since 2002, it seems that there is not too high a price to have fun.
Here is the list of sums that the British are prepared to spend for the marriage of a close relative:
- Travel: 203 euros
- Accommodation: 212.76 euros
- Gifts: 152.33 euros
- Dress: 158,29 euros
- Beauty treatment: 121.13 euros
- Beverages: 115,21 euros
Oh, and if you're Londoner, it seems like you're willing to spend up to 1098.76 euros on a wedding.
Is it worth spending so much money on someone else's big day? It's up to you to decide.
