I did the courthouse thing, then breakfast at The Clock for a half dozen friends.
My Dad was thrilled about that, not so much about the groom.
He was right about that, lasted 7 years.

I have never understood spending obscene amounts of money at the beginning of a marriage, what start it out in debt?
Luckily my parents planned and paid for the wedding. Unfortunately, my Dad hired an accordion group for the music at the reception. I was so mad! The wedding was held in New York, my fiancee and i were in Nova Scotia.

All you need for a cup of coffee is right next to the coffee machine so brew a cup and enjoy the patio in the cool morning air (only 56 outside right now). I'm laying back down as I nave NO need to be up this early.

FIL paid for a lunch out before, and since he was living in New York at the time, he was impressed with the LOW prices here in Grand Rapids, MI. :) The reception was at our house, and a friend made me a spice cake.

Ditto on the obscene cost of weddings/receptions/honeymoons. How do people ever fall for that??

I can see how they fall for it, I really wonder how they pay for it.....rich parents or someone taking on debt that may take years to pay off and the interest that might add to the bill.
 
We're NOT going to have a big wedding and we're going to do the ceremony and reception all in one place, doing a buffet style menu of BBQ food, not even going to have a DJ just play music from our phones [making a list of different songs plus going to have guests add to the song list]!!! TRYING TO KEEP IT AS CHEAP AS WE CAN!!! We're going to wait on the honeymoon until end of November/ beginning of Dec seeing how we're going to be going to VA Beach just so I can experience the Christmas light show they allow cars to drive on the boardwalk at that time. It's something we have wanted to do.
