When you love a woman, you are supposed to give her the severed sex organs of plants. When you love her a lot, you are supposed to give her a lump of compressed carbon. Then you are supposed to get all of your friends drunk.

These are the rules of love.

It's good to save money. But big parties with lots of guests are good for families, build connections. This is some propaganda trying to show lowered living standards is a good thing.

You can have a big family party and not spend a shitload of money to do it.

Should still have a big wedding, not micro. The article is very sad as they try to justify solemn ceremonies with no one there to see it.
