Yeah. That's always been an intellectual problem I've faced with the whole thing. I'd much, much rather have the down payment on a house than a wedding, and they generally seem to cost about the same - though of course both can run high, depending on the house and/or wedding.
I'm on track to spend about $20k of my own money, and about $15k of my parents' and in-laws' money. It's ridiculous. No other way to put it. It'll be fun though, and of course you feel grateful that all these people want to support you. It's definitely about more than finance, but the money alone can give you a heart attack.
