Bridesmaids splash out more than £732 per wedding and a best man can spend £625.

British wedding planner Sarah Haywood told The Huffington Post: "The majority of big bash affairs are hosted by millennials, who see their Hollywood-style moment in the spotlight as a rite of passage and even a necessity it looks like nothing is going to change anytime soon. That has to be good news for the £10 billion British bridal industry but bad for the weddings guests’ wallet."
