You didn't need two witnesses?
To this day I am happy that our wedding came in under budget, and that other than the DJ (who was a bit of a douchebag) me at my wife and I would not have changed a thing. I had the advantage of having worked in the industry for years, so I had advanced knowledge of how to plan the budget, maximize our expenditures, and understand what was, and more importantly, what wasn't important for our special day.
Thinking back on it now, it is an interesting snapshot of our social circles and friendships at the time. I bet 75% of the friends we invited I have not talked to in over 5 years, and are no longer part of our friendship sphere.
