cerem onies are s till the norm,

The standards of w hat is co n ­

couples today are older, more
established professionally, and
spare no expense in w hat is now
a $23 b illio n industry.

basketball star Mark Aguirre and
his bride Angela Bow m an were

weekend, w ith such basketball
stars as "M a g ic ” Johnson and
Isiah T hom as as a tte n d a n ts .
A n o th e r couple, P atricia Jam ison
and N athaniel How se, Jr., after
fo u r rehearsals were united in a
s ty lis h ce re m o n y b e fo re 800
guests, w ith 32 a ttenda nts in the

w h ich in cluded lim ousines, a
tow ering w edding cake, dinner
and a reception fo r 600 featuring a
live band, carried a hefty price tag
of $30,000.00.
The $2.5 m illio n people w ho
tied the knot in the U.S. last year
spent an estim ated $12 b illio n on

on w edding and engagem ent
