Best Answer

The best answer to this is that the same average cost ($27,000) should apply to all weddings. However, there are some issues to be taken into account:

  1. Some same-sex couples may need to travel out-of-state to be married. This can increase the cost of the wedding exponentially.
  2. Some friends and family members may not be supportive of same-sex marriage and may opt not to attend, thereby reducing the number of guests in some instances.
  3. Some same-sex weddings may lack a wedding dress, the parties choosing to both wear tuxedos. Since tuxedos can be rented or purchased for much cheaper than a wedding gown can, this can help reduce costs.
  4. Some same-sex couples, especially older ones, may seek marriage for its legal benefits and may view the wedding as a mere formality rather than a massive social event, thereby reducing costs.
  5. Many same-sex couples choose a civil ceremony, which may have fewer costs associated with it than a church wedding.
