We canceled the $10,000 wedding – made for $500

Join us and celebrate our love.

A pair of cost-conscious lovebirds abandoned plans for an expensive wedding and held a party at McDonald’s.

Ellie, 26, and Alex, 27, had the idea of ​​commemorating their big day by inviting dozens of guests until they processed the numbers and realized that it would Make them spend more than $10,000.

So the British couple reminded their family that they found two witnesses and headed to the Marriage Bureau near their homes to finish the job for about $70 before falling down at Golden Arches’ cheeseburger.

Ally is already a mother of two and tells what jam is, and in the end she just wants to tie the knots – without impressing her guests.

“We can’t justify spending $25,000 to $25,000 a day,” Allie said. “It’s ridiculous. I just want to get married.”

Ellie wore a long white gown for about $300. Football player Alex bought the suit for $200. Overall, the couple spent $500 on the wedding – including fast food.

Ellie said the savings will be spent on two honeymoons – the “Mini Moon” held in Dubai later this spring.

The couple also longed to put the savings into home purchases – and didn’t regret their less lax wedding.

“We looked at the venue, we were cited thousands of people, and then our guests had to book a room. We needed something else,” Ellie said.

“We think if we don’t just do that, then we will never be [mother] and Alex’s brother. After that, I was hungry, so we went to McDonald’s. ” she said with a smile.

“It’s a wonderful day. It completely takes the stress out. Ellie narrates that we have to impress people, we have to impress people – thanks to her family and friends who helped her get rid of the “perfect” non-factual .

Someone splashed Ellie’s hair with $100 worth of flowers, while the bride and groom’s parents were about $700 for a modest party including a casual buffet and a DJ, which was 20 of the 20 couples’ closest friends and family The party was invited.

The groom’s brother took a picture – someone brought a disposable camera and distributed it to the guests.

Ellie said the wedding was “a great thing to celebrate.”

“But people should do that.”
