Scuba Steve's $50,000 Wedding That’s Still Being Paid Off

Scuba Steve made a surprising confession on the Bobby Bones Show, he and his wife are still paying off their wedding… ten years later!

Apparently, in his wife’s culture, the man covers the full cost of the wedding as a way to prove he can take care of his future wife. Scuba took that seriously, but with a $50,000 wedding plus a honeymoon, the bill has taken a while to finish off. He said the wedding payments have just been on the “back burner” while they’ve focused on other priorities like child expenses and life in general. But now, a decade later, those lingering costs are still hanging around.

Scuba joked that if they had to do it all over again, he’d go small, maybe a backyard ceremony or destination elopement. Their wedding had a massive guest list, especially on his wife’s side, because her family wanted to show off their daughter’s big day. Looking back, Scuba says he’d rather have used that money as a down payment on a house or something long-lasting.

Bobby compared the whole thing to going to a casino, it’s a blast while it’s happening, but it’s over fast and leaves your wallet hurting. And Eddie had the perfect punchline: “You were supposed to prove you could take care of their daughter, but you’re still paying for it!”

Scuba insists he is taking care of his family, the wedding bill just happens to still be hanging around as a reminder of how expensive love can be.
