Re: Random Poll: Where did you get married?
Tennessee. H has family here; my family traveled in from the four corners of the earth. lol.

St. Petersburg, FL.
No, it wasn't even close to where we lived at the time (South Florida). We wanted neutral territory and I think the closest person still had to travel an hour to get there. With the exception of our friends who lived in Florida and drove, everyone else had to fly.
We rented an old farmhouse on Cape Cod for a week, threw the wedding there, and stayed there for a week with family and the wedding party.
At the time, we lived in Mass, as did our friends and H's family. My parents and brother are in NJ and I didn't have any other family members at the wedding, so it didn't matter where it was held.
Los Angeles.
Most of our relatives live within an hour of the site.
The first time, it was in my ex father in law's church (my husband did not attend, and ex FIL only went occasionally) not too far from where we lived at the time.
This time around it is not in a church but one of our favorite spots, probably 35-minute drive for both families.
City Hall.
We eloped.
About 10 minutes from where we currently live, which is DH's hometown.
My family is an hour away, extended families are in NY, MA, MD, etc.

We got married at the church my husband and I attended. Our reception was at a private club of which we are members.
It was closer to his family.
Mexico, so no.
We're in TX, family is in CT, VA, NY and NH, so there wasn't a location that was not far for some of the family.
we got married in the catholic church in our city
reception was at a hacienda! Ole!

About 2.5 hours from where we live now, 4.5 hours from where we lived at the time of the wedding.
My family was mostly within 2.5 hours of the inn, H's family were about an hour away.
We figured everyone was going to have to travel one way or another so we went with the place we liked best. It worked out. Of 180 invites, 120 attended.
