For those asking about the wedding cake: it's literally just two store bought choc mud cakes stacked, with cheap decorations on top(not edible), and a ribbon around the middle. Below the poverty line and all that, so nothing fancy, but it worked for us🥰💜

@amorablackrose That is a beautiful cake. Nobody needs to spend the kind of money on wedding *anything* that people spend on weddings.
@roknrol exactly our thoughts! The wedding day is important, but it's the marriage that's THE most important part. Plenty of people spend on a wedding, and are either divorced within 5 years or have shitty marriages and aren't compatible, but they've got carried away with the wedding day and didn't look at the actual important stuff. I'd rather put that energy and effort into married life than one (wedding) day🥰
@amorablackrose @roknrol we both hate being at the center of large social gatherings, so our wedding was basically ceremony; food with family; photos; and then home on the couch, being happy with each other. Last bit was the best part!
