Hitched For Less

Most importantly, the things we’d said “no” to didn’t matter. Guests commented on how much they’d enjoyed the wedding, and no one seemed to notice that we didn’t have a DJ (we used an iPod and speaker system), or that a professional hadn’t done my hair, or that my husband wore a navy blue suit he’d owned for years.

Billfold pal Abby Dalton wrote in detail about her totally affordable 100-person wedding for Learnvest. City Hall is probably the most cost-effective way to get married, but you can also have a big party, and not spend a ton of money.
