OMG Gwynne, another couple on the bandwagon.

Jean, I think "obscene" is the appropriate word for it. You've said what I think.

Mind you, as an observation (from TV), I've found that really expensive marriages with more pomp, pink and fluffy etc. don't last very long.

I'm still glad I had the wedding that we had in 1997! Wouldn't want the sort of wedding they had. Yeuk.

I'm too old as well !!!

They say that mony doesn't buy happiness but that seems to be just what they are doing.

In that case I'm too old as well, Jean.

They've sold exclusive rights to a magazine which will help towards the cost but how much more I would have admired them if they had, at least, donated that fee to charity.

.......................................................................Am I the only person who thinks the amount of money Wayne Rooney and Coleen McLoughlin have spent on their wedding is obscene.

I realise it is their own money and they have 'worked' for it and can spend it however they choose but to hear figures like £5,000,000 being spent in one day on fripperies when there is so much poverty and cruelty in this world I find hard to
accept.

Before anyone has a go I realise it has made work for people and I am sure they do their bit for charity but I still can't see how they can justify spending that amount of money on one day.

I think I'm too old for this world.
