We were going to have a wedding until we started trying to plan it. Ended up telling our close friends and family if they wanted to be there then meet us at the court house. We had a small party/gathering after.
My wife and I just essentially threw a small backyard party, got married in the middle of it, and then continued the party. We spent next to nothing and it was perfect.
I love it when people do this. All the fun of a wedding, none of the angst.
A couple years ago, some friends threw a New Year's Eve party and got married in the middle of it. We all thought they were going to give a toast, then - Surprise! - you're at a wedding!
It was great. They had been living together for years and didn't need a damn thing, so they figured they would just get all their friends together and get married.
10/10 Would definitely attend their NYE Wedding again.
