Weddings on weekdays are allegedly much less expensive than weekends

I went to a wedding in Switzerland. The happy couple divorced six years later....

Weddings are as expensive as you make them. We had 40 guests for ceremony at town house and meal at local hotel, £10 a head. Disco and buffet at night for anyone else. Bought loose flowers online with enough for buttonholes and bouquet for about 40p each. Plain 3 layer cake which someone decorated, wife got a designer dress for 1/3 of price and friend did alterations. All-in £2k max. We're not tight, we just have other things to spend money on. It was our day, the way we wanted it - no fuss
