According to a survey conducted by department store Debenhams, the average wedding guest in the UK spends £510 each time a family member or friend ties the knot.
(The cost of celebrating a wedding as a guest breaks down into the following:-
ITEM COST
Stag / Hen do £150
Outfit £80
Drinks £80
Wedding present £75
Accommodation £65
Travel £60
TOTAL £510

And that's not all, because most Brits will attend 15 weddings in their lifetime, costs can amount to more than £7,500. Not so much "Here comes the bride" as "Here comes the bill".)
