I had the works, and while it was wonderful (and the pictures are lovely) if I were going to do it again I'd go low-key on a beach or something. My wedding was exactly what I wanted at the time, but I was so busy and tired that I really don't remember much of it. I'm told it was lovely and romantic, but I think I would rather do something more relaxed where it was really all about the two of us and not about dealing with 150 other people all day.

I got married last week. I wore a dress I've had for about 10 years but it soo suits me. My husband wore his good suit. We had four guests. Registrar cost £100. Taxis to and from the register office cost £40. No flowers, no rings. Bubbly for the six of us cost about £100 and a meal at an indian restaurant was £130.
So £400 or so and it was perfect.
I've done the whole big white wedding thing before and this was much better - less stress, time to spend with the person I want to spend the rest of my life with and no-one telling me the way I 'should' do it!

Now that I am married and had the big wedding if I had to choose again I would save the money and go for a small wedding on a tropical island or Hawaii or something like that. Big weddings are overrated and too expensive, save the money that you will be spending towards a down payment for house. This is just my opinion looking back at this point. Good luck.

Quite honestly, i'd go with something simple. A simple wedding ceremony, a simple wedding dress, maybe a simple party (a wedding party can consist of your parents, siblings and in-laws, nobody else).
You don't want to spend so much money on a wedding.. (now this is only my personal opinion and I will tell you why... ) Just think.. if you do a simple wedding, just think that the money you will save, you can use on a down payment for a nice house. If you have a house already, why not use it on a nice honeymoon or on a vacation you and your husband might want to take someday.

I would go for a low key wedding personally........registry office, simple dress and a few close family and friends. I would rather have a really good honeymoon to somewhere exotic.
I got married 10 years ago and it was a big affair so 2nd time I would do it differently. Also instead of wedding presents from guests I would rather money was gifted to a charity.

ok, the 1st component is, it fairly is heartening to pay attention you nevertheless have the husband. that's what the marriage is all approximately, in spite of everything, good? 2d - no person's wedding ceremony *ever* comes out the way they dream - no rely what they are asserting. something consistently occurs, on the grounds that's based upon a protection tension of human beings you're hiring for the 1st time on your existence, to do each and every form of severe jobs, and somewhat oftentimes a minimum of one in all them messes up or misunderstands what you theory you wanted. Getting from on your daydreams to the floor is an exceedingly very long holiday. First - communicate on your husband appropriate to the variety you experience. make confident he's conscious you do not experience sorry approximately marrying him - in basic terms which you're feeling down after the accumulation of a dream wedding ceremony. remember, it is *typical* - even though if issues grew to become out regularly as you planned. The time after the marriage is, nicely, an stunning style of artwork that maximum human beings forget. there is not any after-social gathering, you're in basic terms married...and existence is going on. typical, and not something incorrect with that, yet can psychologically be a letdown in view which you're drained and each thing is new. it fairly is particularly considerable which you communicate on your husband - not Yahoo!solutions - and share your thoughts. once you're feeling socially disregarded, possibly start to ask some human beings over for dinner a week. that's time which you are able to be sure your social varieties, and that's an outstanding thank you to get returned into that, and additionally be waiting to beautify the table, set up a menu - issues you are able to now administration that did not finally end up as you wanted at your wedding ceremony. in case you be sure which you do use each and every part you purchased on your wedding ceremony, and make the table beautiful with sparkling flora, take lots of pictures, you will get via this. And sometime, you would be waiting to look returned and chortle on the terrible photographer, caterer, and risk-free practices adult men, and comprehend you purchased the wonderful of all out of the day, and he's sweet there in front of you. you at the instant are not incorrect to be dissatisfied, yet do not enable it rule your existence, and be careful of melancholy. tell your husband, and your physician, until now it fairly takes carry, and you gets via it jointly.

I think it would depend on the resources of the individual. If money was no object, I think most brides would want the huge, red carpet type affair. I personally would like to plan a middle-of-the-road event - not 50 people small but not 300 people large. I'm not all about money and gifts (I'm not even registering anywhere) but I would like to be able to plan the wedding without worrying about sticking to a strict budget or penny pinching. I think if you have to decide between paying Peter this month or robbing Paul, you shouldn't be having a wedding. Just go get married and save up to have a nice party for your 1st year anniversary. My two cents...

I'd definitely go for low key. It's crazy to see these weddings that cost $50,000 plus. All I want is me, my guy, and MAYBE our parents and brothers and 1 or 2 friends on a beach in Florida or North Carolina somewhere. Then ship off the family and friends and let the honeymoon begin.

I am currently planning my perfect wedding, very low key, me my partner and two witnesses.
Our wedding is about us not puffy white dresses, who can get legless drunk and loads of people you don't really like sat around making judgement about you.
I am made to feel like I am doing something wrong by getting married the way I want so I have not involved my family at all and will just tell them after so that nobody can spoil it.
We have not spent loads of money, a nice pair of rings and outfits we can re-use. The crazy expensive bit I think is when you give notice of intention to marry (£60).
The memories I want of my wedding day are looking into my partners eyes and giving myself to him body mind and soul. I do not need 100 people watching and the nation debt to pay back in order to show him I love him.

If you are a multi millionaire and can afford to spend a fortune on a lavish event, or you have saved hard for years for marriage then I don't see a problem with that. It's personal choice but I'd never take a loan to get married, ever, no point starting married life in debt. We're having a small event coz it would take about 20 years to save for a big event, and we don't want to wait that long. I'm really happy with low key, less stress!!!
