would spend fortune to your own wedding or

There is no reason to spend money on a wedding. There are many ways to have a great wedding and not spend an amount that you might be paying on for a long time. We married in the bowling alley since we were avid bowlers. The Minister came and we dressed for the wedding from the stores, he rented his suit. We had the reception in the party area of the bar with soup in a crock pot for everyone and the wedding cake and dancing. It turned out really well. You could have called it a theme wedding. We did not spend alot since we were not making alot of money right then. We were young. We had a household to establish and that takes money too. In lieu of gifts the guests could bring donations for your preferred disaster relief group. Just a thought!
