    By Amelia Tait

    Sure, it’s about jealousy, infidelity and paranoia, but the Killers’ biggest hit is a dancefloor banger: any marriage that starts without it is guaranteed to end in divorce

  8. When you throw a celebration, you're giving a gift to the people attending, not initiating a transaction. This applies as much to children's birthday parties as to weddings.

  10. I agree with all this. For someone so careful with my money, spending $10,000 or whatever on a wedding would make me faint. In fact @NarrelleMHarris and I had our wedding secretly in the back yard of the celebrant, with our friends Craig & Julia as witnesses. Avoided all the palaver. :)

    What do you think? Have weddings become too extravagant?

    "I feel wary of the spectacle that weddings have become. I don’t think it was always like this. Talk to older people and you’ll hear stories of a family dinner and then a dance in the local pub. These days – even for non-celebrities – they are often big, flashy affairs, perhaps in exotic destinations, sometimes over several days. I hear so much about arguments when people don’t get invited, even though we all know space is usually limited. I wonder why people feel it has to be like this. I wonder, too, if the opulence makes the whole thing even more emotionally charged."

    Modern weddings seem to have become all about the spectacle – although, if you do take the opulent route, I still want to come

    By Jessica DeFino

    It’s my job to unpack beauty culture – but I’m still not immune to it. Plus, it’s a particularly strange time to be a bride, beauty-wise
