The Cost Of Weddings In 2023; Start Saving

Author Gianni Giancola

Marrying someone in 2023 is a commitment unlike any other. You are vowing to your partner that you will be there for them in the best of times and worst of times.

The pandemic really influenced how many of us view human interaction. The past two years have been hard for everyone so if you found someone that tickles your fancy, congratulations.

Planning a wedding takes time as some couples plan months to even years ahead of time. This time preps for availability of venues, ordering flower arrangements, ordering outfits and the whole nine yards.

We know weddings can cost a fortune so the most important part is saving money.

According to Zola.com, they surveyed 4,000 people to discover what individuals are willing to pay for their weddings in 2023. The results aren’t as shocking as some might think.

Wedding budgets have not risen from last year and couples are willing to spend more money to get married. Photographers came up as the most important money spender when it comes to getting married. Zola.com says, the average wedding in 2023 will cost anywhere from $20,000 to $40,000. This price range is an estimation for guest attendance as 31% said 100 to 150 guests and 23% said 150 to 200 guests.

We have all heard of the old tradition where the bride’s parents are to pay for the wedding but in this new decade that isn’t the case. The survey found that 71% of couples getting married are pitching in to create their grand occasion. As couples are willing to spend money they are also “budget friendly” in creating registries to help with cost of the wedding, honeymoon and/or for home buying. Only 13% of couples from this survey saved up between $50,000 to $100,000 for their festive occasion.

Overall, the results show that people are willing spend all different amounts to create the “perfect” day. Each and every couple has different wants and needs for their weddings. See Zola.com for more details on this survey.

The Best Type Of Person To Marry, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

No one want to be alone, especially during the holidays. Most of us were raised to go to school, get a good education, get married and have a happy life. Well, the house and white picket fence is not for everybody. It’s very difficult to find someone that’s not only compatible to you but is willing to share the rest of their life with you.

Some of us have looked for love in all the wrong places, such as social media, dating apps, clubs and yes even in places of worship, to find yourself in a situationship instead of a healthy relationship.

Situationships are relationships that have no clear intentions or end goals between partners, and this usually starts with the lack of defining the relationship.

Defining the relationship is a key part to establishing a middle ground between you and your partner: it allows partners to enforce boundaries: physically, emotionally, and sexually. It also allows partners to share their goals of the relationship, whether that is a week, month or a year down the line.

Situationships can be a temporary label for the relationship, especially if you haven’t been seeing each other long and just started spending time together.

However…Situationships don’t always occur months down the line. In fact, a situationship may be established only after a few dates.

Whatever way you find yourself into a situationship, it is likely that one person in the partnership is ready to commit while the other partner is not ready to define the relationship status and may be exploring relationships with other people.

Love might just be the most confusing, but beautiful sentiment we experience as humans. But one look at our social media feeds, and it seems as though astrology memes and Instagram horoscopes proclaiming which signs are the most compatible are sending us the message that our love lives are predetermined by the stars.

I’ve done some research and found the best person to marry based on your Zodiac sign. Now I’m not an astrologer, but I have found some truth in the behaviors of the zodiac. Here’s the best person to marry based on your zodiac sign according to collectiv.world

 

 

  • Aries (March 21st to April 19th) The best type of person for Aries to marry is someone who helps keep them grounded.

    Aries barrels through life headfirst and without much consideration for the consequences. Fiery and spontaneous, an Aries isn’t afraid to follow their passions or their impulses—which is why the perfect person for them is the one who balances them out and can anchor them when necessary. The perfect person won’t ask Aries to change, and they won’t hold them back, they’ll simply be the solid ground that they need.

  • Taurus (April 20th to May 21st) The best type of person for a Taurus to marry is someone who knows how to balance the serious with the fun.

    Here’s the thing about Tauruses: They’re so funny and they love to have a good time. That being said, they’re also incredibly hard workers who will do just about anything to reach their goals. The right person will be able to navigate the balancing act that is loving a Taurus, which means being willing to go out for a wild night one weekend and staying in to recharge the next. They’ll know how to make a Taurus laugh but also know how to encourage them when they’re down and be there to listen when they need it.

  • Gemini (May 22nd to June 21st) The best type of person for a Gemini to marry is someone who feels like a partner in crime.

    This can be literally, honestly Geminis can be mischievous when they want to be and they like to think of themselves and their partner as a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde. They like having someone who’s in on the joke with them, who’s unafraid of taking on the world with them, because at the end of the day, it’ll always be “us vs. them” with these two. The best relationship for a Gemini is one that makes them feel part of a team made just for two.

  • Cancer (June 22nd to July 22nd) The best type of person for a Cancer to marry is someone who feels like home.

    Cancers are very nostalgic people. They’re often stereotyped as homebodies, and truthfully, that’s for a reason. They prefer feeling safe and comfortable, and because that, they often crave things that feel familiar or remind them of the happiest times in their life. The best type of person for them to marry is someone who reminds them of all of those things and who helps brings that feeling into every other aspect of their life.

  • Leo (July 23rd to August 22nd) The best type of person for Leo to marry is someone who loves to shine their light on them.

    Leos tend to be stereotyped as attention-seeking, but that isn’t what we’re talking about here. Because the right person for a Leo sees them for the diamond that they are and wants to show them off to the world. The right person for a Leo will never withhold their compliments or their adoration because they want to make them feel special and seen—and a Leo will always shine brighter under the beautiful warmth of a spotlight.

  • Virgo (August 23rd to September 22nd) The best type of person for Virgo to marry is someone who can get them to loosen up and let go.

    Virgos are known perfectionists, but this is often because they get so stuck in their own head that they struggle to get out. The perfect person for them knows this but also knows how to convince them to get out of their comfort zone and feel more relaxed in their own skin. They’ll be able to convince their Virgo to do the things they might not normally do on their own, like sing in the car or try a new hobby or plan that dream vacation. The best type of person for a Virgo is someone who loves them for exactly who they are but who also knows that even a Virgo needs a break from their own brain sometimes.

  • Libra (September 23rd to October 22nd) The best type of person for a Libra to marry is someone who supports them fully (without getting jealous of them).

    Libras are a rare creature. They have a lot of drive, a lot of passion, and a lot of determination, but also know how to let loose and be the life of the party. This can be a lot for a partner to take if they worry about feeling overshadowed or wishing Libra would give them more of their attention. Because Libras will love hard, but they also need to have things just for themselves—and the best type of person for a Libra to marry is someone who not only understands that but encourages it.

  • Scorpio (October 23rd to November 22nd) The best type of person for Scorpio to marry is someone who’s willing to be their ride or die.

    Scorpios can be complex they have a lot of big feelings, but because of that, they also have a lot of defense mechanisms to protect them. They’ll never be the first person to trust someone blindly, which is why loyalty is so important to them in relationships. They need to know their person will be by their side through everything and won’t give up on them, even when Scorpio is at their darkest. The best type of person for a Scorpio to marry is someone who will never give them a reason to wonder, doubt, or feel betrayed.

  • Sagittarius (November 23rd to December 21st) The best type of person for a Sagittarius to marry is someone who feels like their best friend.

    It’s no secret that a Sagittarius prefers to treat life as an adventure. They want to see the world and explore every opportunity that they can, and what better way to do that than with someone who feels like their very best friend by their side? They thrive when they’re with someone who makes them laugh, who’s willing to join them on all their spontaneous escapades, and who makes every new place feel a little bit like home—and who will make all those mundane, ordinary days feel fun for them, too

  • Capricorn (December 22nd to January 20th) The best type of person for Capricorn to marry is someone who understands their ambition and doesn’t try and diminish their drive.

    Your ideal partner will understand that sometimes your work and your goals really will come first—and it’s not because you love your partner less but because sometimes you have to put your energy towards other things that matter to you in life, too. Your perfect partner is the person who pushes you to do your best and understands how much success really means to you—and who is there to encourage you every step of the way.

  • Aquarius (January 21st to February 18th) The best person for an Aquarius to marry is someone who accepts them for who they are at their most vulnerable.

    Aquarians are often called distant and aloof, but the truth is that they simply don’t always like being vulnerable with people—because it can make them feel judged, misunderstood, or even just uncomfortable. But the best person for an Aquarius to marry is someone who makes them feel safe to open up like that because they know they’ll never be judged by them. They’ll feel safe talking about their thoughts, their past, and their dreams because they’ll know their person sees them for who they truly are and loves them for it.

  • Pisces (February 19th to March 20th) The best type of person for a Pisces to marry is someone who makes them feel completely seen.

    Here’s the thing about Pisces: They’re the chameleons of the zodiac sign. They’re fluid enough to be able to mold their personality to fit whoever they’re around, which is part of what makes them so interesting socially. But while they may not mind putting on these different masks with friends and other groups, they need a partner who sees them for everything that they are not just the pieces Pisces cares to show and accepts them for it fully.
