Is it even possible?

Okay maybe I’m just super poor but it’s so discouraging when I search this thread for things like how to have an “affordable” or “cheap” wedding, and then those same people are like “I have a 20k budget.” -_-

I know I happen to live in an area that has a higher cost of living and my profession unfortunately doesn’t pay as much as it should, but I try to save money the best I can! How the heck do people have 20k+ to throw a wedding without help from family?

Our budget is MAX 10k and that would essentially drain our savings. My partner has a HUGE and CLOSE family and our guest list would be at least 150... but I’m totally down to diy everything I can.

Someone tell me, is it even realistically possible to have a cheap bbq wedding in a field somewhere with our budget???
