As I said, if you only want to get married for the legal benefits, and don't want a party, there is some merit to a civil partnership...
You know there's still a ceremony at the council offices for a civil partnership, right? After which most people choose to have parties to celebrate? Why would the fact that it's a civil partnership rather than a wedding make a difference to whether or not you have a party?
