Many couples are not able to spend such a large amount of money, and it is unwise to borrow and start married life in debt. So, plan a budget - and stick to it!
Look at the items mentioned above, and decide what is important to you, and what you can do without. Start a savings account specifically for wedding expenses. Putting aside a little money each month is easier than finding a large sum just before the wedding day.
