I got married in March by a JP (as my wedding had been cancelled)...Now i am planning a "wedding" for next March, 2021. My husband asked that we not have a "re-do" ceremony at the separate location than the reception (save money for a house)...and just do a sorta ceremony at the venue where our reception will be..we would still walk down as planned and have a Judge do the ceremony (i know kinda confusing),,,i was wondering if anyone has had this happen, especially in light of this Covid epidemic. One of my concerns is we were going to take our pictures after the ceremony on the grounds with the beautiful Tucson mountains in the background. So with this new plan,,,not sure how we would still take the pictures. Any advice or thoughts would be great. Thanks,,,,Judy

I'm not sure how having the ceremony at a separate place would save money. Most of the money spent for a wedding is at the reception.

Thanks Veronica,,,the ceremony was at a different place than the reception,,so we would have been paying two places (this way just pay one place)

Perhaps you could still ask your family/bridal party/whoever to still meet at the beautiful location for pictures *before* everyone drives to the ceremony? However, if you’d prefer to wait to see your FS at the aisle (instead of doing a first look and taking pics before the ceremony) it’d be more difficult. Best of luck with whatever you decide!

Hi Judy! Is there somewhere else in the budget you can pull back to be able to splurge on the ceremony site? Or can you go scope out photo locations near your reception venue??
