When I got married the first time, we were married in the church right after Sunday services. No expensive rental, not even a flower bill. I paid the minister $10, and that was all I could afford. Only guests were the best man and the maid of honor, plus my mom, dad, and grandmother showed up ONLY because they heard about it at the last minute.

Our reception was at on sister-in-law's house, in the backyard. The other sister-in-law baked the cake as a favor to my wife, who was her "baby sister." Drinks were BYOB, and I think we may have had some punch made from 7-Up and sherbet.

Y'know what? Until the day she died, we were as legally married for those 14-1/2 years as couples who spent thousands.

Second wedding cost just a little more. We rented a conference room in the basement of a local bank, and we had mints and nuts as well as cake and punch. For music, some was on cassette, and the others we actually sang ourselves. Didn't break the bank, and we've passed 16 years this past August.

So I've been married TWICE in the past 32 years, and the total spent on BOTH weddings was probably less than some folks spend on tux rentals alone.
