Some men, myself included, are big on the concept of "little fuss, save money". This dangerous idea does not suit many women.

A JP is a good idea, especially if you don't have a deep church connection. The venue doesn't have to be a dingy office, a rotunda in a park is often nice. A short trip home for a catered meal in the backyard and partying the night away.

Tuxes are optional, tailored trousers and shirts with a cummerbund to tone with the bridesmaids go well.
