Summary

This week, Sim breaks down how much you should actually spend on a wedding, why over 50% of newlyweds go into debt for theirs, and how to set a budget that fits your household income without sacrificing what you value most. She shares a simple values exercise to help couples prioritise spending, plus her four golden rules for wedding money, including why you should never go into debt or sell investments to pay for one. Sim also explores the “Vogue feature to divorce pipeline” and what the research really says about whether expensive weddings and rings are linked to higher divorce rates.
