[quote=Anonymous]We 'eloped' in that we had a ceremony in a small church with two friends as witnesses. We also did pre marital counseling with the church. Not overly religious but it felt more peaceful than city hall and the counseling was actually useful. (Both of us first marriage, early 30's) It Turned out well for us. Told his parents next day, they just wanted to make sure my family wasn't there so they didn't feel excluded. (True for most people we told: "why wasn't I invited? Oh, no one was invited, ok then") My parents were thrilled. We saved so much money! Some friends still rib us that we robbed them of a party, but they wouldn't have been happy hanging with mostly strangers, eating catered food at some generic venue. And the vow part for us felt like it needed intimacy, not an audience. It was right for us in that we are very low drama, and I think we dodged some bullets regarding family clashes. [/quote]
