I've always thought I'd elope, and my mom always jokingly said she'd give me money for a house to do so (we don't have serious talks about weddings). I always thought this would be the most practical way to go...why spend so much money on a day when I will have student loans and other bills? I don't think anything is wrong with it and it may still be the way to go for me. But my biggest fear is regretting it. Ever since I started dating my boyfriend (who is the first man I can see myself marrying) I've imagined a traditional wedding. This is super odd because I was NEVER the girl who dreamed of weddings or planned it since I was young...I just always thought I'd take the money and run. Anyway...I don't think its bad, if it truly makes the couple happy. I will probably have a wedding (not anytime soon though) that isn't too large and on a limited budget and then splurge on the honeymoon and reception...the fun stuff definitely deserves more money!!!
