My mom got married over the summer and was determined to have a wedding under 2 grand. We got the bands from a pawn shop, decor from Ebay, did the ceremony on the courthouse steps and walked to a local restaurant for dinner. Everyone had a great time and only about $2500 was spent. She's in her forties so she definitely doesn't need any of the things on a registry so we just didn't make one. Everyone brought cash and she pretty much made back what she spent. They didn't even go on a honeymoon! But they also didn't go into debt.
I just think it's tacky when it's "expected," per say, especially with my generation of social media.
