We're both relieved at not having the stress of wedding planning any longer, but once the event finally came off she had fun, too. We're just happy to have life go back to normal.
We were smart: we kept it small. We invited close family and friends and kept it under 50 people. Consequently, it also kept our costs down significantly. We still spent something on the order of $3k but it could have been so much worse.
Friday before last I got hijacked by the president of the company. He was wanting me to build and deploy a 4-device Hyper-V VM stack in Azure (2 app, 1db, 1 active directory) for a client project. He had problems setting up credit card billing too, so wanted me to fix that as well. Oh, and had to be done by Thursday. So, I had a 72 turn around time to handle a stack of technologies I've never touched before.
Within 12 hours I figured out the billing problem, learned the ins and outs of azure management, built my first azure network (you need separate VLANS, y'all), 3 boxes, one DB, created, and joined devices into my first domain. Wrapped it up with full documentation within 24 hours.
Reasonably proud of the turn around time. Especially since it touched a number of technologies I haven't worked with before.

Got married in a ceremony that was non-traditional and a hell of a lot of fun.
Congratulations! I hope your missus feels the same way. :)

Friends of mine are planning a wedding right now and both sides have huge families. I completely understand lol
Congrats on getting to the good part :)
