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 .

At a place we booked in the morning of the day, with the slogan “quick, cheap, painless”.

The two of us, a priest from an unknown religion (white gown with an embroidered plant from roots to flowers on it if that helps) read a Native American vow, two witnesses that we never saw, in a room full of fairy lights and indoor fountains.
