It is disappointing to see photos of Gedolim, who are supposed to be the leaders, attending lavish Chasunahs in exotic locations. Some of them are known for preaching “prishus” and then we find them at these over-the-top simchas because the ba’al hasimcha is a big donor. When will our leaders actually lead us and stop attending these simchas? Does having a large bank account consititute a Heter to do whatever you want with Rabbinic approval (with photos posted for all to see)?
I think the problem is because people have lavish simchas but give very little tzedakah, but if they do both it’s totally different imo
If you recall, the last time that a kol koreh was issued against elaborate weddings, the signatories exempted themselves. I guess leading by example is goyish.

What’s best is to work on yourself rather than trying to change the world. I understand your frustration, but the situation isn’t going to change until Hashem decides that He’s had enough of this rampant obsession with Gashmiyus.
