10 Awesome Reasons Why You Should Spend More On Your Honeymoon And Less On Your Wedding

Indian weddings are meant to be extravagant. From decor to venue, to outfits and catering, you spend crazily during your weddings. Friends and relatives from all over the world come down for that special day of yours. But, is this how you really want to spend all the money you have saved up after years of hard work? On people who will come to your wedding to eat, and may even say a few mean things about your clothes and your caterer? Of course, not all relatives and friends are like that, but you will still be better off spending that amount of money on an experience of a lifetime. So, if you were already thinking of ditching the stereotypical ceremonies, then we suggest you to go ahead and splurge the money on your honeymoon! Instead you can go for a small wedding, where you invite only your direct family members and a couple of closest friends. And after the wedding, pick up both of your packed bags and go for an adventure worth remembering!

Well, all of this may sound unconventionali, and you might not be having second thoughts. So, here are ten reasons that will convince you to spend more on your honeymoon and less on your wedding.
