'I bought my wedding dress for 20 on Depop' - meet the Irish couples walking down the aisle for less
Briefly

Finn van der Aar, a marine scientist and author, shares his perspective on marriage, emphasizing the importance of intimate rather than extravagant celebrations. He highlights that for him and his partner, the essence of their wedding was centered on enjoying their special day with close friends, good food, and drinks, rather than adhering to societal pressures for a large-scale event. This mindset reflects a growing trend among couples who seek deeper personal connections in their celebrations, rather than simply following traditional norms.
