We got married for less than 2k. Engaged for mad long and got tired of pushing the wedding off, as big $$ things kept coming up. We don't have a lot of family, so nobody was going to help pay for anything.
So one day we said eff it....we're gonna make this happen within 2 weeks.
We were able to get a dope venue for 2 hours, so we had the ceremony there, including a small reception for our small number of friends/family. Then we carried the party over to a local spot for food/drinks in a private room.
That 2k included a great photographer, too. We got lucky b/c dude was on his grind just starting out, so he threw us an entire disc of 200+ professional, edited photos for $200.
I would've like to do more for our wedding, but the money just wasn't there. I'm glad we did things how we did and I wouldn't change a thing b/c we both enjoyed our day. Celebrating 6 years in November.
