Description

The average American wedding runs about $30,000—which is making 73% of Millennials and Gen Zers reconsider whether they can afford one. Listen in as George and Rachel decide what they’d cut from a $30,000 wedding budget and weigh in on four more reasons people aren’t tying the knot (they’re not about the wedding, but they’re all about the money).

In this episode:
·     How to choose your wedding budget must-haves
·     Rachel’s take on prenups and why you might not want one
·     Four financial reasons people aren’t getting married, and George and Rachel’s take on why money shouldn’t be the reason you don’t say “I do”
