Does spending an exorbitant amount on a wedding become ok or would one suggest to buy more houses and/or more cars?
Honestly they can do whatever they wish with the money. Start a college fund for a future child or invest it? If I was made to spend the 10k some way that is what I would come to.

I didn't catch everything but reallocating the cash for another liability is worse imo.

My wife and I got married this past August. But we kept the wedding party small (~25 people) and had it on a boat in Cape Cod.

This basically made it significantly cheaper, since the ceremony and the party were all at the same place.

All in all, it was well worth it. And we insisted on paying for it ourselves, so we made sure it didn't get too much out of hand.
