Marriage-Economy booster

The other  day we attended a marriage of a relative in Bangalore. Myself along with better half & young son went to Bangalore. It was a grand function attended by many relatives coming from many places.
On way back sitting in the comfort of multiaxle volvo i was thinking as to how these functions help keep the economy moving. In all we have generated employment & business to so many people viz ; cateters, decorators, transporters, jewellers, garment manufacturers,sweet shops to name a few. That is we have created several man days work. The indirect benificieries being the travel agents, post, courier. So in short, marriages are big economy boosters.
Apart from these things imagine the amount spent by relatives & freinds that attend the marraige.
