[@sneharaikar32]

I think one of the main reasons why marriages are so expensive is also because a lot of decisions are only taken by the PARENTS of the bride and groom , many a times the kids would not even want something grand but they give in due to their parents' emotional blackmail. The day the bride and groom start sponsoring their own wedding with their own money, people may not spend so much.

[@avinashsharma9428]

Very well said

[@PeacefulLifeGermany]

True

[@unforgettxxle]

True I mean we should encourage our friends to have expensive wedding bcoz we can Only enjoy in other people's wedding but should conduct a small wedding when it comes to own wedding

It can only be changed when we as a society do not curse anyone for not spending much on marriage and at the same time not praise someone spending too much on unnecessary things.

Thank you so much for discussing this topic. In my opinion, it’s not Indian big fat wedding. It is grade 3 obesity wedding 😄 So much can be saved on wedding, kapda and food by keeping it simple.

Well, if we tell our future wife that we can rent our wedding clothes then she herself might be judgmental on us.... And she may think that we are stingy...😂😂

You hv to convince your to-be wife about your financial planning, goals etc...if the things become clear between you and ur partner even before the marriage, then after-marriage things will be much more easier...

[@scalerup]

Lmao I thought the opposite. I always had seen the lehangas wore in reception are very very very heavy that it just rests in cupboard post reception. I wanted to take rental dresses and the next moment I had a thought what would the future MIL would say😂😂😂

[@prathyushareddy4977]

I am a girl, I want to rent lehenga for my reception as I will wear it only once in lifetime. But, finally choose a lehanga that costed me 10000Rs (renting cost me 7k). I am going to thrift sell it or donate it to some one who cannot afford.

[@mohanraogadamsetty8647]

Good video Ji. It's very useful. We need to share this video with the younger generations. More than 80% of the total money people spend for marriages is get wasted. One of the best videos which ever I had seen. We spent very very less amount for my marriage.

[@NiKhilShaRmA-hq2xx]

I am from Sikkim and in our state basic wedding cost starts from 3-4 lakh and lavish ones to 20 max... and that too is returned when as guest gives around 1000rs to 2000rs as help irrespective of wether they are rich or poor or more plus gifts thus it will equalize and no one is in debt....even I say many a times people gets more than what they have spent. It is same for funeral, and there I haven't heard anything like dowry at my state or in our community and same goes way back to my grandparents era too.

There are so many incidents like these. Being aware of this. In 2019, We had register Marriage, to save money and invest same in education. Many people liked our decision. But sm people laughed at us. Sarcastically tried to harm our self respect. Inspite of that i am proud of my decision. I didnt sell our agriculture land, i used saved money for education. And now i am earning sound money. And soon with my dedication, i will be a great architect.

Great video mam, and I experienced it myself by spending a lot on my sister's wedding as well as my own wedding. Mam I loved all ur videos and want to join a full time online course, as I am from Engineering background and was clueless about many things, but with ur videos I learnt a lot....I wish I would have followed u much before in life.

[@caadityadongre]

Hello Rachana Ma'am! I hope you remember me!! The one from Nashik (IPCC Audit Class😅😂) Though I am not of that age of getting married, but genuinely this gave me chills! People spending so much for a single event in their life feels very surprising! I will surely keep this in mind when I will be planning something for myself 😃 As always a wonderful video ma'am!! Kudos to you!! Regards CA Aditya Dongre 😃

yup man i was shocked and suddenly cliked this video

[@aquivideos5143]

In inida most of the expenses are forced by Bridegroom side on Bride. When a girl is born, starting from day one, parents will start thinking about savings for her marriage... One end government is promoting "Beti Bachao Beti Padao", still middle class families think of providing higher education as they may not match a guy for the girl, as highly qualified guy comes with extra cost (Dowry and extra demands).

[@vaishnaviborkar4526]

Another interesting and helpful video of our finace mata. I was madly searching for a video on this topic... And guess what my idol has come up with it.❤️ Sending loads of energy and love.

[@aditikolhatkar7390]

What I feel is that wedding industry is not at all regulated. There's no body/ association that would govern the prices. And people end up paying way more than what is offered by the sellers/ hall owners. And they try to exploit the emotional qoutient attached to weddings. And people think "Ek hi baar to hoti hai shaadi". Instagram and celebrity weddings have made it difficult for middle class.

Very good analysis 👍.... Big fat people's wedding costs doesn't have much impact, but in middle class families this will be major impact on their financial situation, however they ignore it at that point of time because of their prestige issue in their respective families. 🤔 🙏

[@InvestingJourneyWithYogesh]

amazing introduction as always...the big fat Indian wedding definitely has a lot of potential to benefit many stocks and result in quite a few multibaggers as well

[@krishna7862]

Excellent analysis. Cost of Wedding = (Cost of Wedding Hall + Clothes + Food) * No of Days + Miscellaneous. No of Days could be 1 or more as many these days want to have Sangeeth and Reception. Miscellaneous are Hotel Stay (close relatives & friends from other cities), Transport (if any), DOWRY (Yeah still Exists although illegal), Gold (for Bride & Bridegroom - Of course this has been accumulated by parents depending on the region). In different states in India, there are other traditions for Marriage Expenses. In TN, I have primarily heard expenses are shared while in AP & Telangana it is bored by the Brides Family, I am assuming it is almost the case in some of the other states in India. If this is to be considered the Cost Analysis will Change. May be a separate calculator on your website for Marriage with all these factors needs to build. What should it be called maybe Marriage Expenses or SIP with options of sharing or no Sharing?🤔

[@sudeshkavathekar1367]

Good video. As rightly said, it is very personal decision for spending money. But if mutually agreed between families cost can be resuced at optimum level and saved money can be used for financial emergencies or buying dream home or most importantly to live stress free. Financial backing always give you stress free life.

You missed 1 major point Dowry All these money coming from bride side, bride's father takes heavy loan and spend. Due to this dowry culture, indians wedding are lavish and big fat. Once dowry will be reduced, money spending will be reduced in indian weddings. So, teach youngsters and avoid Dowry.

Hello Mam, 1st of all thank you so much for all the guidance that you are providing us in our mid 20's and other aged group, but as you mentioned in the video, wedding is the cost effective event of every once life, so my question is - Now we don't have that 15 to 20 yrs to invest in SIP as this event will be there in next 2/3 years for that what should we do now, so that we can afford nominal wedding event in this coming years.

[@TheNkkalita]

Same question

[@mayak2676]

Just have a registered marriage with a small get-together, high tea, at home with close family & friends not exceeding 20-30 ppl. Anything above that is an absolute waste. Better to spend on a getaway together & invest the rest to be able to spend on future trips together

Yes its thought provoking talk. Much informative and came to know how big business the Indian marriage is. Of course it depends on spender what amount to spend and as seen from family court divorces statics , marriage is gamble. Even in some other Indian community the dowry is also a big amount which you forgot to include in video. Just for calculation purpose asking how much 20 lakhs would be after 20 years if put @ 12% CAGR in to capital market or mutual fund or bank fixed deposit etc.

Rachana, the real reason is India is a country where people want to showcase their money but in real they are not rich.
