Need cheap simple wedding in cdo

me and my soon to be wife will be getting married in jan. but due to an un expected death in the family our founds are very shallow. How can we go about getting married spending as little as possible

Have a civil ceremony and a pot luck reception.

Apply for a marriage certificate at city hall. Set an appointment. DO NOT TELL ANYONE. Buy cheap simple wedding bands and keep them out of view. Do not buy wedding costumes. On the eve of the wedding, ask two of your friends to accompany you somewhere the next day (do not tell them about the wedding. These two will serve as witnesses). Wear your best clothes. Go to city hall with your friends and get married. Have them take pictures.

how much is cheap  ?

First. Do not marry on philippines. Big mistake. If you can go anywhere else. IF, and know we all think everything is beautiful and heaven will protect us from bad thing. But later is things do not work you are minimum 1 year and many court contacts counseling before a anullment. All she has to do is say no and the nightmare will be even bigger. Been there, done that helping friend. This does not include Catholic Church acceptance of anullment before she can take communion.
