If you Live With Someone for a few years do you have a formal wedding?

i will want to have a formal wedding! i mean, it's once of a lifetime thing..and i want to have a wedding which will be the most memorable event ever in my life.

We got Married, In my sisters back yard We lived together for 1 year.

It could be either. The couple should be able to make the decision on what kind of wedding they would like.

I think whatever you want to do is appropriate. If you want to have a big formal wedding go ahead. You are still celebrating the love you have for each other and should be happy with whatever you choose to do. It does'nt matter how long you have lived with someone it would still be a nice gesture.
