Abstract/Summary

Weddings are often envisioned as grand, elaborate, and private social gatherings that require a significant amount of money. Those who are more financially restricted may opt for a lower-cost ceremony through mass weddings.

This documentary shows the stories of a Catholic couple and an LGBT couple who have opted to marry through a mass wedding. Motivations for tying the knot are revealed, such as seeking to legitimize children born out of wedlock, and putting exclusivity into pen and paper. The couples need to shell out more than expected, contradicting the notion that a mass wedding is a more economical option.
