5. Over-the-Top Weddings

First of all, weddings should be special… No one will remember that you’ve had Bluefin tuna on the menu or that you’ve had a rare flower ( the Neelakurinji) that blooms only every 12 years on the table. Don’t blow your budget on an evening when most people will most likely get drunk and destroy your wedding dress eventually.
