Do what MrsB and myself did. Small wedding at a townhall (We had 14 people total), pay for everyone's drinks and everyone's food (Proper meal etc, no cheap stuff) rather than invite 200 people, most of whom you don't know or don't like, to a shitty reception with a crap band and have them pay for their own drinks (WTF, is all that about? Inviting people and then saying "But you pay for your own drinks"...GTF!) . total cost approx £1200
Have a meet with everyone you don't like, that would otherwise be invited to the reception because you happen to work with them, in the beer garden of a good pub or something like that.

Have a greek style wedding mate. This is what happens at ours.. the bride and groom get up to do the first dance and everyone goes and pins money on them. After that + gifts etc, the wedding almost pays for itself.

I went to see a Greek stand up comedian once and he talked about Greek weddings, he said they were the reason most Greek blokes ended up with fat birds.

Only kidding, I was paraphrasing a greek comedian after all (therefore making any racially insensitive comment perfectly ok), perhaps you could start a fit greek birds thread as I am trying to add a bit of variety into my tommy tanks.

There are plenty of tips, but probably not the right thread for them imo.

21st Nov 2011 - Get married at 10am at the Little Chapel of the Flowers. Hopefully (if it's on) play the Venetian Deepstacks at midday.
You know you're on a poker forum when no-one picks up on this bit. Surely playing poker would be the last thing on your mind at this point!
