You're smart to think of the "what comes next".
My wedding got hoodwinked into being the Fairy Princess Nightmare, because the moment I announced my engagement my mom invited about 200 people, and there were lots of demands from both sides of the family. The fact that we couldn't draw lines between us and the families, is part of how we ended up divorced a year later.
Next time? Vegas, baby.
I think a Vegas wedding sounds incredibly romantic and fun, IMHO. Anyone who sincerely wants to attend can and should, then we part and do our own stuff.
My other fantasy is a Hawaii beach elopement, in flipflops.
