Good advice here. We spent about $1,000 on our wedding. That was cheap even 36 years ago.

I have 3 older sisters and 2 of the 3 find out their wedding budget, had an amazing ceremony, low key, and saved the rest or spent it on the honeymoon. I want my future wife to have the dream wedding, but it has to be her dream, not predicated on anyone else. That means she can't please everyone and will need, at whatever point she chooses, to make some choices.
The main reason I reached out to the OT is bc we talked about all this beforehand

My wife and I have been married for 31 years. We spent about $1500 on our wedding, our money, not her families, and had right at 150 people there. We spent about 4 weeks prior to the day making flower arrangements and getting things ready and on the day about 20 of us decorated the state park pavilion we had rented, set up the reception hall and then left to get dressed for the wedding. Wedding went off without a hitch, about 3 hours of reception afterwards and we were off in a limo to a hotel near ATL for a flight the next morning to Jamacia. Spent more on the honeymoon than the wedding. Everyone had a big time...they showed up in formal wear and jeans and T shirts...no one cared a bit. We at BBQ and whatever anyone brought....MIL made the cake, it was perfect. And the marriage has lasted 31 years, we have 2 kids, we have buried parents, we have attended graduations, we have lived life...and we did not freak the frick out or spend a stupid amount of money to tell the world we intended to spend our lives together.
