How do I plan a small wedding fast

The fastest marriage to plan a small wedding is to

• Decide on the bare minimal guest list both you and your spouse can accept. You need to know how many guests are expected when you look for a venue. As limiting guests are difficult because everyone is good to have, you could try to categorize them into "Must-have" (e.g. family and perhaps closest friends). The rest will be either "Good-To-Have" (e.g. existing colleagues, friends) and Maybe (e.g. ex-colleagues, acquaintances) and it is normal to keep changing the list as you discussed on the suitability or compare with your spouse.
• Choose your preferred timing. A noon timing is easier if you do not have many events to in the morning (e.g. some loved gate-crashing or traditional formality that parent requires). A night wedding usually leaves more time for the formalities but little time for you and your spouse at end of the day.
• Find a micro wedding venue that had previous experience in organizing events (this will co than choosing a location and decorating yourself, but really save you lots of time and effort in getting the venue decoration). The venue must cater to your must-have guest list minimally.
• Ensure the venue allow flexibility if you are charged per person (e.g. due to catering food). Guests who confirmed but cannot make it on the actual day for various reasons (e.g. emergency, sickness) will always happen. The venue should allow finalizing the list as late as the day before (if they are charging you food on a personal basis).
• Use a Google Form to collect the RSVP of your guests if it exceeds 30. This will save you time tallying the confirmed guest list. 
• Find friends for help (e.g. take photograph on your actual day, design invitation cards, borrowing a wedding car and getting it decorated, logistic car for moving things will be useful too). You will be surprised by how helpful people are even if you are not close to them. People really want you to have a blissful marriage and don't mind helping when asked.

In terms of formality, marriage is just a marriage license with the signatures of you and your spouse and various parties like officiant or witnesses (although a few states allow common-law marriage without documents). 

However, the law of different states differs greatly. Many states require 1 to 6 days to pass between the granting of the license and the marriage ceremony. Some required the officiant or couple then files for a certified copy of the marriage license and a marriage certificate with the appropriate authority. Some states also have a requirement that a license is filed within a certain time after its issuance, typically 30 or 60 days, following which a new license must be obtained.

Remember that wedding is the start of the journey, not the end.
