Each year over 2.3 million couples get married
in the United States. According to an independent research
report, a domestic wedding market generates approximately $50
billion in retail sales annually. Presumed to be a once in
a lifetime occasion, a wedding is a major milestone event and,
therefore, consumers tend to allocate significant budgets to the
wedding and related purchases. According to a recent
survey, consumers spend on average of $20,000 on the
wedding excluding the honeymoon.
