The Knot just released its annual "Real Weddings Study," which found the average wedding in America last year cost a whopping $33,931. That's $600 more than 2017.

The study shows the reception food as "$70 average catering cost per guest."  $70 PER GUEST? That's just for food! What the heck are they serving? When I got married back in 2007, we paid $15 per guest and we had spaghetti and meatballs.
