My husband and I got our marriage license and made arrangements to get married by a Justice of the Peace. We met him at his home and he married us in his living room. We were married in December and the house was very nicely decorated for Christmas and there was a fire going in his living room. Just the three of us, but it was very nice.
As a funny sidebar, we left immediately to attend his company’s annual Christmas party. There were about 300 people attending. Open bar, four star hotel accommodations, wonderful friends and food. We told everyone they were attending our wedding reception courtesy of the company.
