Well again, each of the Mane Six had unreal expectations for the Gala. Rarity's simply was that she would astonish the elite, catch the eye of the prince, they would fall in love, and later get married. She wasn't a gold digger or worse then Blueblood, simply misguided in her wishes for having the " best night ever".
Also, an aside, I would recommend reading the fanfiction "The Best Night Ever" by Capn_Chryssalid. A sort of groundhog's day story where Blueblood finds himself repeating the Grand Galloping Gala again and again until he figures out how to stop it, with such as luck would have it going through much character development in "only" one night... In comparison to everyone else, in truth countless nights repeating.
