hi i just read an article of a couple who married with a cheap wedding!!
here is part of it :
A bride and groom are celebrating their special day - without the worry of being thousands of pounds in debt.
Odette Fenwick, 19, and 21-year-old Chris May spent a grand total of £480 on their wedding day in north Devon.
Wearing a £52 dress bought on eBay, the radiant bride looked a million dollars and said she felt "like a princess". The groom hired a suit for £90.
The Ilfracombe couple exchanged vows and rings, which cost £19, at a civil ceremony in Barnstaple.

was yours as cheap as this?

We spent less than $7,600 for our wedding in the Philippines (350,000 pesos). It was four years ago and it was still considered a bit expensive back then. But not too expensive! Weddings in the Philippines nowadays costs somewhere between 500,000 pesos to a million! That's too steep for me. But if I had the money, I'd be glad to have that kind of wedding for myself. :-)

The most expensive thing for our wedding was our reception hall. Our wedding probably cost about $3,000. And the reception hall was more than half of that. I bought my dress new for $250 (including alterations). My husband wore his dress blues, which obviously cost nothing. We made our own decorations, my bridesmaid's bouquets, and unity candles. There's so many things you can do to save money; yet no one seems to want to deal with it, so they just spend more for the convenience.

Wow that is cheap for a wedding. I wish that I could spend that much, well the amount I spunt wasn't that much either. I'm going to say we spent $2500 on our wedding.
