If I stay with my current SO (which I hope), we probably won't do the one big day. Families come from two different countries, we live in a third, it would be a logistic headache, and we want to avoid to have to leave people behind.

Besides that, I've also noticed in my friends circles that less and less people are getting married (like 1 out of 10 more or less), mostly because people prefer to get houses first and those are quite hard to obtain. Also the prices of those things is quite high, I've seen weddings from 30k to 60k euros.

I can’t imaging spending that much on a wedding. I know people who have and got divorced a few years later. At least if the money is invested in a house you get half of it back.

Seems a bit crazy to me too
