Our wedding cost us about £200. We went to a country pub after it for steak pie and chips lol. Hubby’s Dad paid for that. A family friend did my posey and cake (that was her gift to us). And hubby’s Uncle took our pics. Was a lovely day. 15yrs later we’re still married and not drowning in debt from having a lavish £10/15/20K wedding xx
We would have to have a wedding in my country. After doing rough planning, we end up with about 30 guests and it's likely that a lot of people would be offended for not being invited.
My OH's friends and family would cover accommodation and flights themselves but we'd have to pay for a couple of my friends (they paid for us and it's a tradition).
Even if we have just food, it will already cost a bit.
I want to elope, get married in Antigua and Barbuda and just announce it (my grandma would never speak to me again. My parents would eventually forgive me. Probably only when I would "give" them a grandchild.)
Sorry it's off topic.
