We did courthouse wedding and then later on did a 100 person outdoor informal barbeque at a park. It was very pretty and was under 1k. I agree that you have to decide what you care about. Since I knew with my family and his family I couldn't have the type of wedding that would actually appeal to me without breaking the bank, I decided that I didn't really want the wedding part. So we just did a big informal reception for everyone. No one had hurt feelings and we got to be cheap and afford a nice trip to Scotland.
