Alright all, I've refrained from too many book suggestions just so that you might take me seriously when I do recommend a book. Might I now take the opportunity introduce Cinderella Dreams: The Allure of the Lavish Wedding.
Married or not married, this is so fascinating a book on how lavish weddings came into be and why.
It is so good that I was almost tempted to drop my current idea for my thesis and adopt this. However it was so good, I decided I couldn't add much and so didn't.
For those of you with access to the byu library, you can read it all on-line.
If you prefer goole books:

it will be on my library list.
Mormon weddings aren't too bad, but the weddings out East are outrageous--flying people out, fancy hall rentals,etc. People save money for years before they feel they have enough to get married.
