But speaking to Legit.ng, Raez Jewels, a relationship said how much one spends on a wedding does not matter.

She said:

"No matter your status in life, how much you spend on a wedding doesn’t matter so long as you’re happy you are getting married to someone you can live in peace with. I don’t think how much you spend on a wedding is important at all. I love people but I have a very small circle and not everyone knew or knows about my marriage or when I got married."
