What are you getting married for? Marriage isn't about showing off or having a society style party it's about declaring your love for another person and asing for the support of your family and friends for your lives together.
I suggest you concentrate on making sure you have as few debts as possible and a comfortable home to make sure your lives together are as worry free as possible and forgoe the big wedding.

It doesnt necessarily need to cost a lot of money, depends on if you and your girlfriend are happy with the memory of just a cheap registry office. My husband and I spent hardly anything on getting married, if you have to make a big deal to make a statement its not real, if you do it that way because you want to thats different. You could always get married on the cheap now and honeymoon later when you can afford it, or even reaffirm your vows in a posher way later.
Or do you just mean you cant afford to move in with each other yet? In which case youre going to just have to wait and save or you risk landing yourself in debt.
This is such a personal question that only you and you gf can decide it together. Take the advice of those who know you who you can trust.
Good luck....

Love has no boundaries. Love conquers all. Have some more faith and pray often. Money is not all. Sometimes when the two of you combine your efforts, then the fruits of your labour will become. Do what you have to do to make things possible. Forget about the income. Do you think the birds in the air worry about what they are going to eat the next day. Don't you think they eat anyway. We are no different to the birds - all are of God's creation. Good luck!!!

If your girfriends dream is to have a big wedding and you want that too, then it's blatantly obvious that you need to delay getting married until you can afford that type of wedding.
Open up a bank account specially for that purpose and put money into it every month until you have enough to pay for the wedding. Surely this is obvious?

It all depends on your earnings.
Your income as a couple is what you should focus on. If your expenses exceed your earnings, you should postpone and save. If your expenses are below your current earnings, plan ahead.
Congratulations on taking the step. Suffering a little together is a great bonding experience, especially when it's about money, because it means you're together for different reasons other than money.
Also: If you say $100 a month, every month, you can retire millionaires.
You should consider it.

it all depends on the both of you, and what you want your wedding to be like.My wedding was on a very small budget,l got married in a park and just had finger food, some friends played some music, and l bought a keg and some wine.People still talk about our wedding 15 years later,they said , some say it's the best wedding that they went to.If you want the whole shebang then yes you will have to wait. Best of luck to you both.

Hi why don't you do it cheap hire the dresses and suits buy silk flowers and do them yourself have a buffet instead of a sit down meal and have the wedding about 4pm so you go straight into the night time this is what me and my husband done we never had a photographer our family took pictures instead and it was the best day ever.

Are you meaning that you don't have enough money to get married??? You weren't specific. If that is what you meant, you could always go the cheap way and get married by a Justice of the Peace, go to City Hall, there are options...... Good Luck!!!!

What's money got to do with it? If marriage is your thing, then you can do it without breaking the bank.
Personally, I'll never marry! I've stayed with my girl for 15 years now. We've never seen the point in bothering.
