Summary

This week, listeners share what it’s like to plan a dream wedding when money and family relationships lead to conflict and compromise. We hear from couples with vastly different ideas of what they wanted to spend, about opinionated parents and in-laws, and tips from people who managed to spend less. This episode first ran in 2023 and includes new updates from some of the happy couples.  Podcast production by Zoe Azulay with help from Cameron Drews. Get more Death, Sex & Money with Slate Plus!
