Weddings, no matter your budget, can pinch your wallet. So, brides and grooms are taking a new route. They're putting their wedding on lay-by or 'Wed Now and Pay Later'.
FOX 5 I-Team's Dana Fowle explained how the new trend works. Looking at online platforms and magazines, the average wedding costs $28 000 (almost R500 000). Traditionally that is paid in different ways like parents chipping in, siblings helping out, or loans.
