Has anyone ever gotten married at the courthouse and didn't have any family there and regretted it later on? I'm now torn between getting married at the court house or waiting and planning a small wedding

I got married at the courthouse & had only very close family there. My mom & sister, his grandparents, my two girls (since I hadn’t had my youngest yet) & then two of his close friends who were more like sisters were there to take some pics for me. But that was it. I don’t regret it at all. To this day I’m more than happy with our decision. I sometimes think it would be nice to just have that one day to wear a wedding gown & have a whole day to feel beautiful like that, but then I remember helping with my sisters wedding & just talking with people planning theirs & I thank god I didn’t do it because the stress & pressure would make me Bridezilla fast 😂 we saved our money & went on a week long honeymoon to the beach just the two of us. It was the absolute best ever!

We didn't get married in a court house, but we got married in Vegas.
Including my husband and I, there were 9 people at my wedding, and in my opinion that was 7 people too many... lol
I don't regret having a small wedding at all, I also never dreamed of having a big wedding when I was a little girl either.
I cared more about the type of person I was marrying opposed to the type of party I would throw. I just couldn't justify starting off our marriage with wedding debt. Instead we saved the money we would have spent on a wedding and used it for the down payment on our house.
My hubby and I will be celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary next year.

Nah, if I could go back, I'd do it all over again. Weddings are stressful.

My husband and I got it marriage license from the courthouse then did the whole Justice of the Peace thing. We called him, he came to our place and we got married, alone, in our living room. Honestly, it all depends on you and your husband. Don't let anyone give you grief. You could always have a small reception at a later date, when you're not so overwhelmed. Congrats and good luck! A wedding is one day, a marriage is a lifetime.

Why not get married at a park with just immediate family? Then have a cookout with friends as a “reception”? My friends did that and I wished I did that inside of big wedding. Definitely do something small! Nothing wrong with a courthouse wedding either.

Maybe get married at the court house then when y'all are comfortable(money and time wise) then plan a small ceremony for friends and family to come celebrate y'alls marriage with y'all.

I got married at a courthouse. I dont regret it at all but then again I'm not close with any family and prefer no drama. My family would of caused a big scene and ruined it, they arent complete without it being about them. If youre close with your family, maybe have a small wedding or have a reception after the court house. Either way, congrats ❤
