For <2500, you will be relatively limited. Get married on the beach, and just have food brought there and eat outside. That's probably the most cost-effective option. Skip extras like favors, they're not necessary. Skip the bridal party, unless it's extremely important to you. Larger bridal party= more attendant gifts you really should buy. If you have friends/ family members that have a band/ are in one, consider hiring them for a discounted rate (maybe they'll be kind enought to offer to play for free if they're all going to be guests). I guess you don't really need live music if you're not having any dancing, though. So maybe just an iPod hooked up to some portable speakers.

Oh, also... have a rain plan. September tends to rain in Florida, in case you aren't from here.
