"Did you receive the wedding invitation today?" From June 5438+ 10, 2009 to now, Miss Shen, who works in a commercial building on Pudong Avenue, has received eight wedding invitations. "According to the calculation of sending 300 yuan to each wedding, 8 weddings cost 2,400 yuan, which is really unbearable!" !
It is not only the guests who received the "red bomb", but also the newlyweds who are going to get married in 2009. Before the National Day holiday, the Shanghai Wedding Industry Association predicted that the number of people holding weddings in Shanghai during the "Eleventh" period reached 40,000, which ushered in the highest wedding tide in the past three years, and this wedding peak will last from the "Eleventh" to the end of 2009, forming a three-month "wedding tide". With the rapid increase of the number of people getting married, the cost of getting married is also increasing. Mr. Sun, who was going to get married in June, 2009+0 1, has already offered nearly 10,000 yuan for the wedding master, and the price of the wedding banquet is also rising quietly.
Faced with high wedding expenses, some couples and guests have also come up with various ways to save wedding expenses. Some couples even posted a detailed comparison of the "slimming" wedding expenses on the Internet for the reference of prospective couples.
