According to a study by The Knot, the average US wedding in 2021 cost $28,000 ($34,000 including the engagement ring).

Or, perhaps you chose to have a wedding instead of making a down payment on a home, and now you're kicking yourself because the housing market has gotten so wildly competitive.

Or, maybe you realized that the wedding was less for you and more for everyone else, and you wish you'd eloped instead and put the funds towards a super extravagant honeymoon.
