    ‘bro just find the 1/1000 women that want a courthouse marriage, i did! it’s so easy!’

    and if you can’t find her because you’re part of the 999/1000 guys, just don’t marry i guess?

    personally I’ve never date a woman who didn’t want a big fancy wedding, sounds nice to meet such a lady, but for most guys they won’t ever have the option of marrying that person, but they will have the option of marrying someone who wants the big fancy wedding.

      memes aside everyone has to decide for themselves what is acceptable and mine was not at a courthouse

      full disclosure l, i think mine was under 5k and most of that was the food which i very much enjoyed

      that said better to not get married than to do so with a woman that expects extravagance outside your means

        most of my friends had small cheap marriages in local venues.

        my two siblings did not. they had very expensive destination weddings. I didn’t even go to my brothers because I couldn’t afford to spend $5,000 to go to a wedding for 3 days and he has never forgiven me for it. I was 23 and made 20K a year… lol

        when i date all i meet is women who think 50K is a minimum spend on a wedding. and they are clear the point is to impress other people and make them jealous, especially the people who aren’t invited like their rival from high school or something.
