Modest Muslim Wedding

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/altmuslim/2013/11/the-case-for-a-modest-wedding-in-islam/

Based on the hadith narrated by Anas about the Prophet’s marriage to Safiya:

“Then, when we were on the road, Umm Sulaim prepared her (Safiya) for him (the Prophet) and brought her to him at night, and so the Prophet awoke the next morning a new bridegroom. Then he said: “Whoever has something, let him bring it.” (In another version, he said “Whoever has an excess of provisions, let him bring it.”) Anas continues: “And so the leather eating mats were spread out and one man would bring dried milk, another dates and another clarified butter and so they made Hais (hais is a mixture of the above three things). The people then ate of this hais and drank from pools of rainwater which were nearby, and that was the wedding feast of the Prophet.” [Bukhāri, Muslim and others].”

No extensive planning, no frills, no fuss. For after all:

“The marriage, which produces the most blessings, is that which involves least burden.” (Tirmidhi)”

Let the rich man spend according to his means, and the man whose resources are restricted, let him spend according to what Allāh has given him. Allāh puts no burden on any person beyond what He has given him” [Al-Ṭalāq 65:7].
