My BIL and SIL got married at registry in Melbourne a couple of years ago, but they were only allowed to have a total of 10 people, meaning that DH (the brother - and only sibling - of the groom) and I weren't invited
They had a party afterwards, but it caused a bit of a stir...
I went to one in the Melbourne Registry office. The couple had already had a wedding in India as a pre:wedding honeymoon, this service was for friends and family. It was beautiful. They had the smaller room so you can easily accommodate a smaller wedding. They have all sorts of packages for all budgets.
The Bride and Groom wore traditional wedding dresses and suits and everyone dressed up.
Then it was to an Indian restaurant for a banquet (they were not Indian by the way, just love the food).
It was such a nice relaxed wedding, no dramas what so ever and we all had a ball.
You could have so many options if you were not too sure about the Registery Office - there are heaps of parks and gardens you could use which after speaking to the applicable council might be cheaper then the registery office.
Then all you need to do is find a Marriage Celebrant who doesn't charge heaps and see what they can offer.
