“My Big Fat Fabulous Wedding” show me the money?

They were wealthy to begin with and have either family money or have been successful in business. I suspect that the show might subsidize a little bit of the cost too. Frankly, I don't think spending those sums makes the wedding or the marriage any better. You're better off focusing on a wedding that reflects your lifestyle and taste with an emphasis on the importance of the couple's love. And personally, if I had that much to spend on the wedding, I'd make a lovely party for a fraction and use the rest of the budget for the honeymoon or an investment in the future like a home or savings.
