Some of my freinds and family are upset at the fact that i did not invite them to a dinner that I had with my immediate family after getting married in city hall. Now we got married in city hall because we did not have enough money or time to get married by the church and have a big wedding. We are still planning the $15,000 wedding lol. But we got married in city hall more for us not for my freinds or family. I explained to them that i got married in the court but not in the church (my family is really religious) so it is more important to them i thought to get married in the church and to invite everyone then. More so my freinds are the ones more upset because they wanted to be there for me to get married. But i keep tryign to tell them i am geting married in city hall for just me and him it is our thign for ourselves. Basically the whole hoopla later with the big wedding is for everyone else and for religious reasons. Do you think that should be feeling that upset over it???
I think i should be more specific with my question. What is more important to invite your family and freinds too: City hall ceremony or Church/reception Ceremony. I know i am legally married and i love it and like i said it was for me and him no one else. Also the other factor is that my family is really religous so until i get married in the church they dont see it complte. Then my freinds side looking at it as i don’t want to include them on my special day when all i am thinkign si that that day was special for me and him and no on else and i liked it like that.. even though i do love my freinds and my famiyl andi rather them be there for my big wedding and in the church.

We are planning to elope (just the 2 of us) and want to get married at the lighthouse but I am having a hard time contacting anyone there to see what I have to do. Do I need a permit if it’s just the two of us and the JP? Do I have to get permission or can we just go and do it? Please help…We want to do it in the next couple of weeks.

My fiance and I have been engaged since Feb. 8th 2008 and have known each other for a little over seven years now. We have been wanting to get married but can’t afford to have a wedding at this time so we have decided to get married in the courthouse. The only problem is that we do not know what county in Oklahoma that still does courthouse weddings, what number to call or what site and have looked all over. Please help.

Like at every wedding you have been to,what was the one gift that was given at every wedding?I’m not talking about money.

Was your wedding simple, extravagant, or somewhere in the middle?

I want to do a candy bar at my reception instead of the regular favors. Has anyone ever done this at their wedding? How much candy did you use and how much did it cost?

We are planning a wedding in Kansas City, but have friends and family all over the U.S. Most people will have to either drive at least 4 hours or fly in to attend.
We understand that not everyone will be able to make it, but we want to send them an invite out of courtesy. However, we also don’t want them to feel obliged to send us a gift just because they were invited.
What’s the etiquette on this?

My husband is going into computer repair and I need to find a nonmagnetic wedding band for him to wear, any suggestions?

Or are there companies that hire entry-level wedding planners? Or even wedding planning assistants to move up?
