This Is How Much The Average Australian Wedding Costs In 2017

Over 1,000 engaged and recently married women completed our biannual Cost of Love survey, which revealed the average cost of a wedding is now at an all-time high.

Results showed that Australian couple's now spend an average of $90,128 on their big day - an increase of 4 percent in the last two years and doubling in the last decade.

The figure represents a staggering 75% of the average Australian couple’s annual income and is $30,000 more than the average Australian's personal income. 

When it comes to the wedding gown brides are spending an average cost of $2,535, with them being 58 percent more likely to use Botox pre-wedding than participants in the last survey.
