I threw together a wedding in 24 hrs?!?!?

I GOT MARRIED !!!

My fiance and I decided to get married , we wanted to have a wedding at the courthouse but it was over $100?!?!

Absolutely crazy.

Buuuut , my best friends dad is an ordained minister! I called her mom the night before and asked if he could officiate and what time he got off ,so we could schedule the wedding for a little after that !

I went that night and bought my dress & shoes at a thrift store, We ran to Walmart and got some cakes and plates and silverware

we messaged all of our close friends to let them know when and where the wedding would be.

Started getting ready the next day and had a BEAUTIFUL wedding !

We had a reception at McDonald’s with our friends and family and we had a blast !!

It was 100% worth it!

It might not have been everything we had planned , but it was even better. ♥️

... Read morePlanning a wedding can often feel overwhelming, especially when time is short and budgets are tight. However, spontaneous weddings can turn out to be beautiful and memorable! Here are some tips for throwing together a wedding on the fly: 1. **Utilize Local Resources**: Reach out to friends and family for help. An ordained minister, as in my case, can make all the difference! 2. **Embrace Thrift Finds**: Look for wedding attire in thrift shops. You can discover stunning dresses and accessories at a fraction of the price and with unique charm. 3. **Keep It Simple**: Focus on what truly matters – love and connection with friends and family. A reception in a casual setting, like a local eatery, can be just as fun and heartfelt as a more formal venue. 4. **Communicate Effectively**: Make sure to inform your nearest and dearest as soon as possible. Use social media or group chats for quick communication! 5. **Prioritize Fun**: Don’t stress over perfection; enjoy the moment! The best weddings are those filled with laughter, love, and joy, regardless of how they were planned. Embracing the unexpected can lead to unforgettable moments and experiences on your special day!
