About this title: Two professors from the University of Illinois present their observations on the persistence of the lavish wedding, even despite the recent economic downturn in the US. The authors base their discussions of the historical, social, and psychological aspects of elaborate weddings on media accounts, interviews, and their own research, and draw comparisons between the costly wedding and the larger consumer culture itself.
