Awesome thanks. That guest total is a problem for us, yes. Big families on both sides that are still very involved in our lives, so blessed in that sense, but now we're paying for it 😂

😂

I just did a private pool party over the weekend at our private finca. We just redefined how a marriage should look like for us w/o all the fiat noise around (no professional band, no professional photograph, no suits, no wedding dress, just bbq, etc) Basically just our closest friends & fam celebrating each other at our private location without any rules. Marriage is a fiat scam (my personal pov)

Save the sats! Don’t spend money on a wedding. Gather friends and family and find a nice big tree or an ocean view and boom you’re done! Sit together and have a meal afterwards… no need to spend money on this—when you look back in ten years, it will be most memorable due to the people who attended.

My wife and I got married at the courthouse. Our marriage is between us and God (ignore the state) so we didn't need to gift others with a party. We've seen a dozen other couples that spent thousands and thousands on a wedding that divorced with debt. We take a trip to renew our vows every 10 years (went to vegas for 10 years, just us and elvis) Spend that money on SATs and then go on trips together in the future. Anyone that really loves you two will simply be happy for you and congratulate you for not making a culturally pressured financial decision.

Dance around a tree, it is free, fun and helps your relationship exactly as much as marriage does. You can send me 100k sats for this advice, i helped you save 14.9m sats. You are welcome!

My wife and I got married in a grove in an old growth forest that is part of a Pennsylvania state park. We got permission from the park -- and the cost was zero. We did spend a little for a path of flowers shaped like a Life Rune, and a portable sound system to add some Beethoven to the background bird calls, but that's it.

Your parents and siblings, her parents and siblings, priest in a church, dinner at a nice restaurant. You honestly don't need more than that. Enjoy spending the money you can afford, don't mind what others will think. God bless you and your matrimony!

A friend of mine did this for about 80 people: Free for the guests: - soft drink and beer from kegs - barbecue A bunch of musician friends brought instruments and put on a little one-afternoon festival after the ceremony, which took place under a tree decorated with flowers - each guest brought their favorite flowers to make it feel visually rich. It all took place in a public park with a small pub/restaurant nearby, so anyone could buy additional drinks and food.

Did ours in Portuga rather than UK. Dramatic location, got creative and ess guests kept the costs down.

I’m a bitcoiner also getting married this year. I’m having the same thoughts. My #1 takeaway is that you want your future wife to enjoy the day. However much BTC you need to spend to achieve that, do it. If it’s not much, great. If it’s a lot, it’s one day, do it anyway. More broadly, I am starting to realize that if we’re right about bitcoin, it won’t actually matter how much we have. We can’t even fathom how much it will be worth. So for a special day like a wedding, don’t be afraid to spend.

Expose her to the fact that the diamond industry is built upon mass psychological manipulation, and exploitation. That mossanites are both morally, and ethically better, higher quality, and less stressful to purchase. Also some cultures don't use diamond rings, they use nose piercings. Probably avoid catering if possible. Find a cheap venue. Have a small circle, mom, pops, siblings, aunts, uncles, close close friends, and grandparents. You could also just avoid the marriage ceremony all together, and just get legally married, or common law married. But if you're looking for affordable options for a societally acceptable wedding then good luck, might have to shell out at least $10,000 to $15,000 at the cheapest if you're lucky.

Not to marry is the best cost cutting method. My research in my family, friends, relatives circle shows that marriage does not solve anything and in most cases causes problemes when it fails, especially in financial terms for the men. Women demand it as a security guarantee sure, however it is and always has been a con game for men.

My wife and I just went to the courthouse and got the paperwork. No cemenomies, etc.

Get hitched at the courthouse, have a small/personal wedding, and take what you would have spent and buy more bitcoin. Take it from someone who didnt and should have.

Fake your own death

https://www.tacobellwedding.com LFG!!! We invited?

We did this for our wedding so maybe some ideas will help. We printed invites via an online service, nothing super fancy just simple and nice. We cooked the main dishes (smoked whole prime rib and Low Country Boil (frogmoore stew if you are in South Carolina) and did some smoked jalapeno poppers (Atomic Buffalo Turds), with sourdough bread bowl's filled with spinach and artichoke dip. We had some guests that brought a few of their favorite sides as well. We hosted it in our backyard and rented chairs and a large canopy thing in case of rain. I think the cost was in the 4k range at that point. It turned out perfect and we made it more of a backyard bbq which kept guests stress down because no need for suits etc.. for attire. The invites were awesome, you might be able to find the template online by searching for "Eat, Drink, and Be Married". There was definitely a good deal of stress getting everything ready, but overall that removed the stress of needing to coordinate others and worry about vendors being on-time and doing what they said they would. For me, it was the perfect way to do it, without the pomp and circumstance, surrounded by good friends and family, eating amazing food, and enjoying the company while celebrating the newlyweds (us!).

Pot luck wedding in a field.

Marry rich was my hack

Elope. Spend it on a miner instead. ⛏️

City hall with a prenup

We had a friends backyard (farm-ish). Roasted a whole pig + sides for a few hundred bucks (people still say how much better it was than fancy plated weddings). Used decorative plastic plates and silverware from Amazon, no one gave a shit. Tents and bar were the biggest expense. You could buy booze and do open bar, self-serve, if you wanna cut that cost. Tent is pretty crucial if you are having an outdoor wedding, better safe than sorry. Chairs are somewhat pricy, depending on how many people- you may get by with an eclectic mix of borrowed chairs. Hire a friend with a camera for pics. Get some family friends who want to be at the wedding but wouldn’t necessarily get an invite to run dirty plates (they will gladly help if it means they can attend). Decide if you wanna pay a DJ or can have a friend/playlist suffice. We cut/sanded logs for centerpieces and bought Trader Joe’s flowers for cheap. A ton of thrifted/free decorations to fill space. Printed cards/signs at Walgreens. Hung some string lights and called it day. Looked really nice and everyone had a blast. That is pretty much it All in a few grand.

I'm engaged and if it was up to me I would just get married at the courthouse and call it a day lol

get married on bull markets

Public (city/county/state) venues are affordable.

Celebrate it. Hopefully you only do it once. Don't worry about fancy, but do think about being comfortable. Don't try to do too much yourself or you will be exhausted before it starts.

For who do you wed? The 2 of you? Or all the others... 😉 Just sign the papers and go on with your life... no need to spend any more money on it. (The fact that you even need to pay is reduculous in itself)

A friend of mine many years ago had guests help make and bring the food. That worked pretty well!

If you do it in warmer months, a potluck at a park pavilion works. Book the pavilion so it's yours. Let the people you love be part of it - don't let money be the reason you can't. Money doesn't deserve that much importance, even if it's Bitcoin. Reduce the cost per person, and let them come celebrate with you. But don't put on a big show just for the sake of it. Being set up for life after the wedding is important too.

Cancel the wedding and spend that money on travel. Travel is just about the only thing I never regret spending money on. Weddings are overrated. (Commitment is underrated.) You can do your wedding for much much less.

Get married in the winter, venues often give large discounts during off peak times

Recoup with gifts? Keep it simple. Enjoy the day

I think it is complicated, and there is no single solution, just enjoy it even if it is with few resources 🤙

Get her pregnant now, so she is too distracted to plan an elaborate weddng.

make the wedding more affordable by adjusting your value measure. balloons and flower arrangement and ostentatia are fiat. get that into the fabric of your being

Wedding day is a single day. Memorable sure. But marriage is a lifetime journey and expense. Spend accordingly.

Elope. Why do you want to spend that much money for a party for other people??

contrarian take based on other comments i paid for our wedding myself, no family support, spent a decent amount, worth every sat

Think about what really matters. It's a celebration of love. Does this really need any money? Keep it small and simple, it's not Hollywood. For food, flowers and room renting (if needed at all) create a https://geyser.fund/ or use self hosted https://be-bop.io/home . Maybe, some of your friends will have a room, willing cooks and produce for the feast and decorations. Don't do a fiat wedding, be different and use your own standard.
