The INSIDER Summary:
Sue and Eli of Crossroads, Australia tied the knot at their local Costco.
The initial idea of a Costco wedding was a "bit of a joke," until the couple considered how much time they spend in the store and how large their family was.
The store remained open during the wedding.
Catering came from the Costco food court and cost $10 per person.
Ever caught yourself thinking that you love Costco so much you could marry it? Well, you can't currently marry a grocery store. But one couple did publicly profess their love for each other and the bargain store by getting married in one.

Eli and Sue got married at Costco with 90 wedding guests in attendance. The store was still open, and passing shoppers got a glimpse of the festivities. Seriously—the things I would've done to have been a witness.
