And that’s what matters is you two getting married!!!! The how and where is secondary!! 🥰

I've been married 26 years. My husband and I decided to have a small wedding with just our immediate families. We were married in December in NJ, so it was definitely an inside event, so we had a private room in a nice restaurant. It was perfect and not expensive. The following summer, we had a big BBQ for all our friends and extended family, which worked out well. Spend the money on the things that serve you in the long run...a beautiful honeymoon trip, things for your home etc.

Agreed. I didn’t spend an excessive amount on my wedding either. My husband and I set the budget for $10k and didn’t go over it because we were investing in our new home together. Thankfully, we closed 1 month before our wedding day. After our honeymoon we had the best time buying these for the house, decorating… such good memories. ❤️

Getting married in your backyard is not a bad Idea you save money and it’s where the memories will last forever for the both of you. In the end you’ll appreciate it. What’s important is you guys love each other that means it doesn’t matter where you guys get married it will be the perfect place.

Your backyard wedding is going to be beautiful. My husband and I got married in our newly purchased home 7 years ago and it turned out beautiful. We turned our living room/dining room, into a “chapel” and then a sit down reception. We also had a DJ in our family room where we continued the reception with dancing and everything else that’s done at a reception. ‘Til this day, people still talk about how nice our wedding was. All that to say, be encouraged. Your wedding will be beautiful.

My husband and I had a very small wedding and reception in 1985, and on our 25th anniversary we had the wedding of my dreams at our church and a lakeside reception at a nice venue. It was very beautiful, and cost effective.

I understand Marcus’ point about having the wedding in a separate space, where you can be done and go home and start your life. I’ve done a lot of pre and post wedding cleanups and I’m not even married. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Use some of the money for a clean up crew after the wedding and reception in the backyard...and have someone you trust to supervise while you all go off to a hotel and come back to your house after your honeymoon. 😁

That sounds good. We definitely have to be mindful of the cleanup

Have your ceremony with family and close friends in the back yard. Have your receptions and party with food, band, and cake at another place for all to attend. Doing it this way will cost you less.

Happy New Year! The grass seed "mousse" that gets sprayed down from a hose attached to a truck grows incredibly fast, and looks like turf. Not sure how pricey that would be, and don't know if that includes the soil prep before the spray.

The beauty of a wedding is not about the space, it’s about the unity of two people who truly love each other.

Happy New Year! I love the decision you two have made to save money on the wedding! Your future selves will thank you for it in the long run... Word of caution when you get the trees cut down... There's a big possibility you'll see field mice on the property or even in the house. If you do, know that's where they came from. Have a conversation with the people who will be cutting them down on what you can do to minimize that from happening on the front end...

Y’all are too cute. Marcus is tearing all the food up and now he’s dancing. Must be good.

Happy New Year

Y’all too funny so a private ceremony it will be lovely ❤️❤️💯💯

I think it's such a great idea to have the back yard wedding in addition to investing into your back yard. Very wise move!

Congrats on finalizing your wedding location and date. I thought about night under the stars. Gorgeous lighting in trees or tent with nice lights. Excited for you both. One of my goals is to learn more about Kwanzaa in hopes to celebrate it in 2022. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

If you DO choose the back yard, I imagine a Macrame arch with little tendrils falling down. A boho chic aesthetic which is very y'all. ❤

Yes I'm so happy because I suggested you do the back yard and save 💰 also. You can do what you want at your home. Light up the wooded area behind the home for the magical effects. It's going to be beautiful.

Your wedding will be beautiful. I'm so glad you all went for this option. You could even hire landscapers to do the work for you for less than that $20k price tag. I can't wait. I'm happy for you both!!!! And marshmallow.

Congratulations on setting the date! My husband and I had a very small intimate wedding ceremony at our church and a reception at his grandmothers house. It was beautiful with just our very close family and friends. This year we will have been married 26 years. Marcus I know you and Kayla will make it “enchanting”.

Hey Frat and Kayla. August is a great month to get married! My husband and I were married on 8/19/06! Best of luck! You got this!

Yes I will be watching

You all are working this out. Have you ever considered a nice hotel space. They have nice banquet rooms. I went to a wedding where everything was right in the one room.. wedding. Dancing and dinner.. you don't have to clean up when you leave. Also there are outdoor places like a garden or large courtyard that you can get. I'm thinking like Marcus, the big clean up after people leave.

Love the backyard wedding idea. Got married at local park. Best decision ever.

Great decision why not have it in your back ground you all will save so much money. 😀 I know it will be Gorgeous. Happy New Year to you and Kayla.

Aww how cute is the little doggie…Aww

You guys are such an inspiration to young black couples! I love what you guys are doing and pray that you guys are blessed to continue on.
