I'm a millennial (barely) and my wedding consisted of about 20 close relatives and friends for guests, in a church, with a baptist minister. Cost about $2k which I paid for myself (and allowed my wife and I to make our own decisions on how it would be run).
We used the money we didn't waste on a frivolous and overly expensive wedding to buy a house, which 5 years later is getting close to being paid off.
Not all of us are the stupid, Godless, entitled pricks that your generation taught us to be.
Love hearing stories of people giving the finger to the wedding industry.

Amen. I choked when I found out what people were charging.
As a hobby before my kids were born, I used to DJ at various clubs around Lexington (mostly edm, some hip hop before it got unbearably bad), and when I found out what wedding DJ's charged it kind of pissed me off. Especially when you consider that they made at least 4-5 times what I did on any given night for something that takes considerably less skill and attentiveness. I mean, I wasn't in it for the money because this was a hobby, but it was the principal of the thing.
