The average cost of a wedding is outrageous. You're looking at spending at least $20,000 for that "dream wedding," which a lot of people seem to chase (even more than actually being married to someone they love).
In pursuit of that once-in-a-lifetime wedding experience, brides and grooms oftentimes have to find creative ways to make the money for their big days. Which, apparently, might include shamelessly asking other people for money.
