Average Cost of Wedding per State

Hey everyone! I saw this article on FB about the average cost of a wedding by state. Not really sure how this data was collected, but it was interesting. Are you above or below the average? I’m definitely above (Louisiana)... check it out!...

    Average for California!! I was a little surprised to see that number but I guess it makes sense north California (where I live) is super expensive and way more than that number but south California is a lot cheaper so I guess that average makes sense

    I am far under average for Michigan, and pretty much all states, coming in at about $13k.

    MA, but we are way over, even with being minimalist with most things. It would be interesting how they collected these. Prices for a wedding in Boston are very very different than the price for something very similar in the western part of the state.

    We're way under for Kentucky (ceremony) and Ohio (reception and home state). I couldn't imagine getting anywhere close to those numbers for one day.
