A Saturday in June is still the most popular time for a wedding
A Saturday in June is still the most popular time for a wedding, followed closely by Saturdays in July and August.
But while nuptial dates have remain steady, the costs have not. According to The Knot, the national average cost of a wedding is now $35,329, up $1,428 since 2015.
The average cost of a wedding dress is $1,564. Compare to the groom’s attire at just $280.
With the average cost per guest at $245, some things have changed in the traditional wedding. There are fewer guests, for one thing down to 141 in 2016 from 149 in 2015. The bride’s father is no longer always the one who pays for the wedding. Today, according to Bride’s Magazine, the cost is often shared by both families. At least 30 percent of the time, the bride and groom themselves pay for the wedding.
