Get in touch with the county you stay in to inquire them the cost of getting a marriage license and getting married at the courthouse. It will most likely be beneath $ 50 based on whether or not you have to shell out an extra fee to have a person carry out the marriage.

When i maried my wife in 2004 we spent a total of £200 this included a champagne breakfast, suit, wedding dress, taxis to and fro from registry office, meal afterwards, flowers, fees etc. We love each other so much and decided why should we get into lots of debt so that lots of family / friends / false friends etc can have a party!!!
If you got married at the Justice of the Peace, I’m sure you’d only have to pay for his or her time and the marriage certificate!
If you want to then have a family reception, it could be as cheap or expensive as you want! Rent out the VFW and have your family make sandwiches and desserts! Getting married is just about celebrating your love! Not going into debt to throw the biggest party of the year (well, for some, but it doesn’t sound like you!
In Northern California, I once met a couple who had married in the mountains.
One weekend, they just slipped out to a nearby national park and met up with an officiant they’d met on the internet.
Total for gas, officiant, a night or two at a local hotel, some meals, and a couple roles of film to record the simple ceremony? $ 300.
Though if you want to bring the kids along, that might cost a little extra, since they’ll be eating too and you’ll probably want them to sleep in a seperate room. Let’s say $ 350 for you, then.
I’m not sure you could get any more romantic for that little money. Just check the weather reports first.
In 1963 we eloped. We got blood tests for (I think) $ 10.00 each; plain gold wedding bands for $ 7.00 each; license, ceremony, certificate, etc. about $ 25.00. Still in love, still married, still have the same rings. Saved tons of money.
First of all, I love reading about all these marriages that were not based on opulence but just love. There was no need to impress or to make a big deal about anything.
I wouldn’t mind doing the same thing, we’re still having a small wedding (60ish people, $ 5500), but we’d like to see people we haven’t seen in a while but still keep in contact with. It gives a good excuse to celebrate friends and happiness.
That said, you can have a very simple marriage by a JP, it’d just cost the amount for a marriage license, so about $ 50. If you want to buy rings, that could be any amount. You could go eat out with family afterwards and whatever you want to add probably wouldn’t cost much since much of the cost goes into food anyway.
Thanks for the stories. It restores my faith in human sanity.
