I can't second this enough. I got married in May of 2006 and while I have paid off all other CC and loan debts (except for house and car), I am still trying to pay off my wedding debts! And it did not cost that much - we economized where we could - and it was a lovely wedding, but my husband and I would be buying a new home this year if we'd done things differently. I COMPLETELY understand the lure of the $25K wedding with all the family and friends there, but if it's just going to make you more panicky, then either scale back or wait a while! Surely in today's economy, it's acceptable to tell people that you're going to wait until you can afford it!

Like others, this is just my opinion. DH and I have been married almost 20 years now and I have a lot of hindsight. My wedding day was beautiful and important but it was just one day. I wish that we would have spent less and had some "cushion" starting our lives together. As it was, we were very quickly in debt and, I believe, it really started us off on the wrong foot.
