I agree - it is only as big a deal as you want to make it.
I got married this summer, the only advice I have. If there is money- even a little - coming from your parents or your soon to be inlaws. Remember it is you and your wifes's day, don't start making concessions or changing things to be more ridiculous then they need to be for someone else. Or even scale down something becuase someone makes a comment.
We wanted a "non wedding like" 250 person wedding, we succeeded, but not without a few battles about "traditional things we were leaving out" and bs like that. As far as I could tell when I went to bed at 330 am and people were still partying, everyone had a great time.
Oh and one more thing - I havent met anyone that loves 4 hours of Speeches and Program. Keep it locked down to a few people.
