I mentioned getting engaged a couple of times in popular posts and didn't get any responses. I'm also not nearly as plugged in here as I've been at times in the past. It's my own fault, but I figured there just wouldn't be enough people here who knew me to really justify making a NSSP.
Thanks for the congrats, though. I appreciate it. Really.

I am looking to drop about a grand on my son's rehearsal dinner *NM*

Well, part of it is that the rehearsal dinner isn't on the $5k budget.

It is avoidable, but people will treat you like you're a nutcase if you don't do most of the things

Yeah, and that's why Russians are all dying of alcoholism. *NM*

If they're not close enough to invite to the reception, are they really needed at the ceremony?

In most cases, a church ceremony tends to be an open thing. Anyone can come.

I can't imagine someone in America announcing their wedding was on a weekday.
