Imagine spending $100 and still having the wedding of your dreams. That’s exactly what happened for newlyweds Jasmine Nash and Sirmetrius I. Hill who are going viral for their incredible, budget-friendly wedding on social media. In an interview with Essence published May 5, the couple shared how they pulled off a beautiful, meaningful ceremony for a fraction of the typical cost. Their secret? Award-winning event designer Britney Hoskins, founder of The Top Pic Collective in Detroit and the visionary behind Mini-Mony Day, an annual event that reimagines what a wedding can look like at an affordable price.
What is Mini-Mony Day?
Happening on Valentine’s Day once a year, Mini-Mony Day offers couples an intimate, thoughtfully designed wedding ceremony without the overwhelming price tag. During the mini ceremony, couples can invite up to 15 close friends and family members to share in the moment, with an officiant included and ceremonies scheduled in advance, according to the program’s website. Despite the affordable price point, each wedding is thoughtfully customized with help from Britney Hoskins and her dedicated team of students who help plan and execute every detail, resulting in a fully curated, luxury-style experience, all for just $100. For that price, couples also receive a professionally styled experience complete with florals, a bridal suite for getting ready, a first dance, and even a cake cutting, Essence noted.

Jasmine Nash and Sirmetrius I. Hill, who traveled from Atlanta to Detroit for their wedding, was blown away by how seamlessly everything came together. They were one of 11 weddings that took place at this year’s Mini-Mony Day celebration, according to The Top Pic Collective’s Instagram post shared on Feb. 14.

“The decor was breathtaking and way more than we could have ever imagined,” Nash said.
A video shared by The Top Pic Collective shows the couple celebrating their big day in stunning wedding attire, surrounded by a venue filled with vibrant red roses, stunning florals, glowing candles, and heart-shaped balloons that created a truly luxurious atmosphere. The décor was designed by Hoskins’ students and sourced largely through Temu, according to Essence.
Even more surprising was the sense of connection. The team behind the wedding, strangers just hours earlier, quickly felt like family.
“We left our families at home but felt like we gained a village with Britney and her team,” Jasmine Nash told Essence. “Instead of being nervous and uptight, we laughed and cried together like we were old friends.”
Social media users online were also shocked by the lavish wedding ceremony with many in awe of the stunning decor.
“No way this was 100,” wrote one user in the comments section. “I am in Marietta and want to go to Detroit to get married. I have a 100!” another chimed in. “This is beautiful,” a third fan added.
Weddings in 2026 are expensive.
Like many couples, Nash and Hill had struggled to figure out how to afford their dream wedding. In 2026, the average wedding costs around $36,000, though that number can vary widely depending on location, guest count, and priorities, according to Zola. Major expenses like the venue (averaging $8,573) and catering (around $6,927) often take up the largest portion of the budget, followed by photography, florals, and other creative services.
For Nash and Hill, a traditional wedding had been years in the making, but it never quite came together.
“After being engaged for several years, we were exhausted trying to make the ‘perfect’ day happen,” Nash said. “Big weddings can quickly become about logistics, expectations, and pleasing everyone else.” With four children and the demands of everyday life, the idea of a wedding started to feel out of reach. “Having a wedding seemed like a day we would never make it to,” she added.
Then they came across Hoskins’ post.
“In the midst of planning for a 100+ person wedding, we came across Britney’s post advertising a $100 Mini-Mony and decided to take a leap of faith.”
In the end, the experience changed their perspective entirely and the couple are glad everything paid off.
“Save your coins and stress,” Nash said. “You can still have it all without breaking the bank.”
