Indeed: > In 2012, when the average wedding cost was $27,427, the median was $18,086. In 2011, when the average was $27,021, the median was $16,886. In Manhattan, where the widely reported average is $76,687, the median is $55,104. And in Alaska, where the average is $15,504, the median is a mere $8,440. Luckily, these are not national figures, merely numbers reported by visitors of a particular website. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any more representative numbers, especially with expenses measured against income level.
