Twenty-six grand? That's obscene.

My friend's parents spent $250,000 on his sister's wedding. And it wasn't in Manhattan or Beverly Hills but Cape Girardeau, MO.

Pete Tarantino, a 35-year-old Kansas City loan officer who just got married to Susan, 31.

?It's important to stay focused on spending a lifetime together and not just a day,? Tarantino says of the planning process. ?It's about your relationship with your spouse and your relationship with God. Stay away from the magazines and the TV shows, and be involved with each other.?

?The focus has moved to the bride's dress, the size of the ring or how many people are at the reception, when it needs to be the exact opposite,? he says.


This is man with a good head on his shoulders! This marriage won't last, he is too sensible.

"My friend's parents spent $250,000 on his sister's wedding."

Are you sure you didn't put an extra zero in there? Maybe you meant $25,000?
