SO happy for you!

This is what we did.

Got married at the court house, in the "chapel". About 20 of our closest friends and family came. cost -$100

I bought my wedding dress at JC Penny's on the clearance rack. was actually a "going away" dress, hubby wore his brothers suit.

Had a reception a few months later at my MIL's, pot luck, hubby made our wedding cake, gifts were optional. Lots of friends and family. Mostly just enjoyed being with everyone.
cost - maybe $100.

we've been married a bit over 13 years.

I loved my wedding. The whole wedding and reception was about us starting our lives together, not starting our lives in debt.

Nobody else is floored to hear Wifezilla admit to eating a burrito and funyuns?

I have a juvenile urge to write my name all over a notebook page just to see how it looks changed

Okay, I feel like I missed something, but.... what is a bacon explosion?

And congrats. Where can you set up a wedding registry for sheep?

Oh my gosh how did I miss that? First, now I'm so hungry that I wanna trek to the store and get the ingredients RIGHT NOW, and second, I am so dang disappointed that I'm dating a vegetarian. That would have been so much power.... lol.

In case I didn't make it clear, that looks amazing and I'll take three. And then a personal trainer.

We got married on Yule of 2008, in his families back yard. Held the reception in the house. His family usually gets together then, so it was easy to attend. One of my best friends wrote and performed the ceremony. We added a bit to personalize it.

I found a dress I loved at Ross for 15.00 dollars. Not a traditional brides dress but that would not have been me. He was very relieved that I told him to wear his kilt. No monkey suit. Neither of us are into them. A relative did the pictures as a gift. It was in the evening so some of them didn't come out well.

We bought some bunches of flowers at the store and made my bouquet and one for the table. We bought some party foods and other people brought more too. Turned out good, and we didn't go in debt at all and had about 30 people.

We were married in August. For flowers we asked all of the ladies in the church to plant a couple of patio pots of annuals for their yard. Then the day of the wedding, everyone brought their containers and just placed them about. The day before the wedding, MyT Man and I stopped along some roadside ditches and cut black eyed susans and daisys and used those at the reception. Then we had a potluck reception.

Not as relaxing as burritos and funyons but still pretty casual!
