Are destination weddings ruining your savings?

from The Hard Shoulder

We’ve hit peak wedding season and, if you’re in your late 20s or 30s, you’re probably receiving multiple invitations every summer for friends’ destination weddings.But, spending your hard-earned cash attending a friend’s destination wedding if you don’t have a deposit for a home, or if it requires you getting into debt, smacks of financial self-sabotage, so writes Gabrielle Monaghan in today's Irish Independent.Joining Ciara to discuss this further is Money Journalist for the Irish Independent Gabrielle Monaghan, and Sara Kennedy, Wedding Expert and owner of The Aisle wedding blog.
