<prompt> Human: Hey everyone, im really hoping for aome advice, I recently got engaged to my now-fiancé and weve started planning the wedding and realizing how expensive its going to be.My fiance is very down to earth and doesnt want all the bells and whistles. I have a small web maybe 7-10 people I consider close whereas she has a massive family and a large but closeknit church community. We ran the numbers for our invite list and its 200 people minimum, without 1s.We dont make much; shes a PSW and Im entering the web dev field. We plan to DIY pretty much everything we can but we still have no idea how to feed a minimim of 200 people on what is a pretty shoestring budget. If you guys have any advice we would love to hear it. Edit: theres a few important things I forgot to mention, our location will be our church which weve already been given permission to use for free, my MIL will be handling all the floral arrangements as her wedding gift too  <response>: Honestly, around here youll likely get advice like dont throw an expensive party, when you can get married at the court house. A 200 guest wedding sounds like enough to make a decent down payment on a house, which is a much better investment for a newly married couple.
