Would you rather save on wedding costs and use the money for a downpayment on your first home or spend the money on the dream wedding?

Could you live with a cheap wedding and use cost saving money for your first home?

My husband and I eloped partly to save money- partly because my family was "unable" to attend my wedding.

If I had to do it again, I would probably elope, or do a super cheap wedding. Especially if it meant that I still had cash for a down payment on a home. What married couple wouldn't want that?

Does culture dictate the wedding cost and size? For example, if your in India and upper class the wedding can last a month.

It very well might. Although I think the cost in India is less than some of the weddings in the US. The reason I think that is because a lot of the food and entertainment is provided by family members and that is- in a sense- their gift to the newly weds.

I would definitely rather put the money towards a house rather than a big wedding. If I got married, I would want it to be a small wedding that is not too expensive.
