This is our special little wedding shoulderbag. Isn't it dainty and feminine and just ideal for that special lady on her very special day? You don't want to even think about what it took to make this bag, but let's just say the word "dizzy" comes to mind. Now about weddings. About 2.1 million weddings took place in the United States between December of 2005 and 2006 and not counting the honeymoon, those weddings carried a combined pricetag of $86 billion dollars. Even though that's a pretty big number for people getting hitched, it's a decline from the previous year by more than 60,000. What does that mean? I'm not sure how to analyze the figure. It could mean a number of things, for starters that fewer people are finding the benefit in marriage or it could mean that more people are waiting to make sure that this sacred institution remains a well respected one. By the way, if you're interested, over 9,000,000 weddings were performed in China in a single year (2005) with the average cost per nuptial cosing $19,000. I'm not sure, but I think by American standards, that's a bargain.
