My parents got married in 1959.  In a hall with a band. And a photographer. And flowers.
And they weren't out of the ordinary. 
Your grandmother's family were (probably) poor immigrants.
My grandmother was a Holocaust survivor who emigrated to Israel on the date of its founding. This was in Israel just about 2 years after coming off the boat. I'm pretty sure they had everything else but did a 2 for 1 on the gown and probably the flowers and whatever else they could have shared. I have seen pictures and there were flowers.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

This hall is in general more than Bais Faiga too.

You sure? Have heard is cheaper. And justifiably so. Curious if the bigger halls are considering splitting hall in half or thirds and have weddings start an hour apart so can all use the chuppa and disinfect the chuppa in between (if necessary).

Good idea. Let’s see how this plays out. Then, I hope they continue long term. Cheaper weddings and less waiting months for availabilities.

Maybe just me, but having a backyard wedding for immediate family sounds better than having 10 people in a massive empty hall.
Depends on the backyard I suppose.

Only concern with backyard is it becomes weather dependent. Though i suppose you can have a rain date if guest list is limited to immediate family.

Exactly. Bar Mitzvah/Vort halls become viable as well if you do a chuppah outside.

Total cost is 4,750 all inclusive.
I know a backyard wedding that costed a few hundred bucks. That's it.  $4750 is a lot of money for something so small

Now that you blatantly spelled that out, it sounds even more foolish to be spending such obscene sums on weddings..

I'm talking about if it's legal.
I assume @aygart is on tapatalk so he didn't notice the bold quote. Cousin Lemel is a Shmuel Kunda character on When Zaidy Was Young.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Kinda hard to get that (especially in writing) for the general public when the published guidelines are too strict to allow weddings at all.

What this hall did is get an exception arranged (probably had to have political pull to make it happen), and it’s an exception that you can’t quickly (and legally) replicate in your own backyard.
So basically they arranged that illegal weddings can go on and the authorities will turn a blind eye? And thats not gonna cause any Aiva?
