Dont overspend and ruin your life.

I only invited a dozen of friends over but my dad overdid it with 70 tables and luckily breakeven. Still loses 10K for the buffet dinner.

Maybe spend 5K or so on photography, few K on new furniture, 1-2K for ring and 5K for dowry. These are the one that cant be skipped.

I think the money saved can be better utilized on something useful like a car, house or whatever.
