Dreaming of a grand wedding and a celebration that leaves a lasting impression on everyone is natural. Yet, such an event often comes with a significant price tag that can result in financial regret if not carefully planned.

Our today’s heroes experienced this firsthand after they spent $70,000 on their wedding, only to be disheartened when the gifts they received amounted to just a small part of their expenses. As a result, they had to cancel their honeymoon plans.

Now, the pair has turned to us and our readers for advice on how to cope with their disappointment, sharing that they feel deeply “devastated” by the experience and are struggling to move forward.

Anna and Mark shared their story with us.
30-year-old Anna and 32-year-old Mark have recently penned a very emotional note to our editorial. The two are experiencing not the best times in their life. And it all started as an innocent wish of the duo to make their wedding day special and unforgettable and to turn it into something that one will hardly be able to surpass.

Anna was writing from her account and also on behalf of her husban. She sounded very emotional, and it was clear that they both have so many feelings about their family situation.

Anna opened her letter, saying, “Hi! I and my husband, Mark, are now feeling totally desperate. Many people are judging us when we try to share our problem with them, and we haven’t got much support so far. We’re writing to you seeking some help and good advice from people who may feel concerned about our current situation. We expect others to be judging us heavily, but what’s done is done, and we do need some support from people.”

The couple wanted to arrange an unforgettable wedding, and it cost them a fortune.
Anna shared, “We got married last week and this was our common ambition and dream to make our wedding so special. We spent $70,000 on our wedding with a guest count of 300. We worked non-stop and pushed so many bills. We even took a loan from my mom, which is $10,000, and she demands it back by the end of the month.”

“Now, we both have a nervous breakdown, because we didn’t get what we expected from our guests. Well, our wedding was really posh, and we bet other couples would be jealous to death about how we arranged everything. This was something that was probably worth being reflected in media, but a huge disappointment was waiting for us ahead.”
