Most weddings are about THE day and the bride (moreso than the groom) have an idea of what they want that day to be. For some it's once in a lifetime and if you can afford it and save then why not spash out, if you're poor then obviously it makes sense to go cheap. It's whatever works best for the couple.
I got married in Barbados, had an honeymoon at DisneyWorld, had a church blessing when we got back with a lot of trimmings then a 70's fancy dress party at what was then the brand new Huddersfield Town stadium. We saved like crazy for 2 years and don't regret spending a single penny.
There's nothing dumb about spending money for that one day in your life that you'll probably never repeat again.
