Two most important events on Bali prepared with great care are weddings and funerals and the costs for both of these two events are enormous.

For the people in the western cultures it seems ridiculous and absurd to spend such an amount of money when you can barely live on your salary, but eastern cultures think it is inappropriate not to celebrate a wedding with all necessary rituals. Have a look at one typical Balinese wedding.
