We also got married in the arse end of nowhere - our hometown.
Rented the Scandinavian Cultural Centre (we’re not) because it was cheap.
Had 90 guests, wanted potluck but MiL wouldn’t hear of it, so we allowed her to pay for catering. Asked for no gifts, got a fair few. We wrote and performed our own ceremony though there were at least 4 members of the clergy there (including my dad) who could have legitimized the whole affair. Was a good time, we had an ersatz dance (my own cassette taped tunes) and my BiL graciously provided the trunk (boot) bar.

Not in spirit of thread, but it's just been our anniversary so I was looking through the wedding pictures and found the one of us with his parents. His dad died last year and I don't think we've seen that particular picture since he died, so it was a bit of a kick but also really glad we have it.
We did get married in the arse end of nowhere, but we had the decency to do it at the weekend.
