It’s not that I am spitting venom against all those happily
married/engaged couples just because I am single and not exactly ready to
mingle, it’s just that to be happy you don’t need to spend tons of money.
Surely marriage is a celebration family and friends look
forward to but what I cannot come to terms is with all the extra hard earned
cash by our parents going to waste just for ONE DAY. Super expensive clothes,
venue and a banquet fit for a king just to show off to people we even don’t
really care about.
So here I have a creative solution for all the cash you are
planning to spend on your big day.
1. Invite group of your close family and friends, the people
who you actually love and know the names of to your special day. DO NOT call
the neighbor’s uncle’s daughter’s gardener as well. Dance, sing, feast, laugh
and take pleasure in the time you spend with them. Remember Small gatherings of loved ones = more
fun.
2. This might sound to righteous, charity all that money. Ok
don’t charity all of it, but do a small portion of it for your blessed happily
ever after.
3. Go on a vacation. Imagine all the places you can go to
with THAT amount of money! Travel, go to different places, try different cuisines
and enjoy every minute of it.
4. Get that thing that you wanted from ages.. That thing can
be anything! The Xbox you wanted for your perfect weekends, or that lovely
grand piano which you will never use in your life. At least you will have the
damn thing for the rest of your life.
5. Save it. Ok this is the most boring point but honestly
save some cash, it always come in handy.
After all these liberating, wedding revolutionizing thoughts
I know one thing for a fact, my own family would never let me do all this no
matter how much I protest. This is
because we live in a society where norms control our lifestyle. We call
ourselves free people but we are slaves to thoughts of what other people might
think.
Anyways. Cheers to all those lovely couples ! Have a blessed
life my friends.
