Day 28: Our Wedding

Bryann and I were married 6 months ago today.  We had such an amazing wedding...  (Thank you, again, Mom & Dad...)  I'm so thankful we were able to have a real wedding with all of our friends and family- like with a wedding dress and a ceremony, and a reception with dinner and cake and dancing.  Weddings have become this crazy multi-billion dollar industry and what used to be a celebration with a few friends and family has turned into a completely crazy affair.  Apparently the average wedding in the US costs $27,000.  I found that extremely hard to believe before I started planning my own wedding, but with what the structure and sequence of a typical modern wedding event (catering, food/alcohol, photography, music, rentals, transportation, cake) it's not hard to spend $27,000.  

We managed to throw our wedding for less than half the national average.  We made our money stretch and threw an awesome wedding!  We didn't want for anything, and we had one of the best nights of our lives!  We both had so much fun, and we still receive compliments from friends and family friends about what a great time they had.  I'm so thankful for that day.
