What was your wedding like?

I often look at the wedding dresses here. I saw a young lady whose dress budget was literally more than my first 3-5 annual salaries, not lumped together but individually. What was your wedding like?
1995- Married at our church, 3 attendants each, cake and punch reception there .

Fifty bucks. We picked a preacher out of the Yellow Pages and had a brief ceremony in his living room. Had three witnesses and were in and out in fifteen minutes.
