Easy and Cheap Costume with a Love/Marriage Theme?

I'm a guy who is going to a Halloween party that's doubling as an event in honor of two friends who just got married out of town. The theme is love and marriage. I want to wear something cheap and easy. Like, $20 and less than two hours cheap and easy. Any suggestions? This would be it but for price:

    I kept thinking of Frank Sinatra's "Love and Marriage." Got a suit? You can probably score a vintage fedora for $20 or a little more if you can find the right place. That might be cheesy, but not so obvious? (Or not obvious enough?)

    You can conceivably cop that skeleton costume the same way if you already own a suit. Nix the top hat, and buy a carnation (probably about 50 cents) to make yourself a boutonniere (attach with a pin or tape on the back if you don't have a boutonniere loop).

    Don't have any ties that aren't leather or covered in saxophones? Go to Value Village and buy a wedding-ish tie -- satiny, grey stripes, should do it -- for a few dollars. The flower should really help though.

    Paint your face with some cheap make-up from the drugstore.

    (I know I'm making a lot of "GOT A SUIT" stipulations, but there should be a good chance you've got one.)

    Cardboard valentine heart out of a fridge box, with their names on the front. Red paint, white lace trim, cardboard = under 20 bucks.

    or

    Bring a date:
    One person goes as a Prenuptial (imagine dressed like (I'm just a) BILL from SchoolHouse Rocks), and the other goes as a Divorce Decree.

    Old-timey striped prisoner's uniform (white sweats and a lot of work with a magic marker) with a ball and chain?
