Marriage is a 30 billion dollar business! And that's just to get married.
When Fred asked for Mary's hand in marriage, she thought she had the happy ending she only read about in fairy tales.

As Mary rushes off to the Bahamas for a relaxing escape from her crumbling marriage, she reflects on the past and wonders just where it all went wrong.
