How I did it: We got married in Oregon at a place called the Cornelius Pass Roadhouse. It was awesome because, not only was it a beautiful location, it was also all-inclusive. All we had to do was pay for food and they did everything else. Didn't have to rent a sound system or tables or linens or anything of the sort.

Lessons & tips: Find a place to get married that does all the work for you. I found several locations, including the one I picked, that doesn't charge any kind of room or rental fee as long as you pay for a minimum amount of food. It's an easy way to avoid the average of $20k people spend on weddings these days!
