I don’t want anybody to be there when I get married and I feel like that’s normal even though it seems uncommon.

I’d want to have a party after with family + close friends + a photographer, but not really a big one. For the ceremony itself I just want me, my partner and the person conducting it. If I get married it’s not gonna be for show, it’s for the act itself. I don’t care about putting on for family and friends like that. Maybe it’s odd but maybe if more people thought like that we wouldn’t have 50% of marriages ending in divorce.

If I get married I hope it's at a courthouse. I don't want a big wedding or a spectacle. Just gimme the papers I need to sign and then let me go home.

@DearAmbellina2113 me too. The vows are important to me though.

I got married at City Hall. There were the two of us, his brother & my best friend as witnesses, and some official (City clerk, I think) married us. The license cost $50. The parents threw a party afterwards which was the equivalent of the reception. Our plan was to enter the marriage as debt-free as possible.

I was widowed about six years later.

@bijouxbroussard My heart goes out to you ❤️ I can’t imagine what you went through.

Not odd. Be you. It's supposed to be your day. Society just demands it to feel otherwise.

We got married at a registrar's and only had the registrar and two witnesses. I didn't want a fuss, I'd have got married online if I could 😆😆

I don't think "getting married" and "normal" belong in the same sentence anymore
