Reasons to Plan a Small, Intimate Wedding

Updated: Oct 30, 2021

Small weddings create an intimate setting with your guests. You feel relaxed and can enjoy the moment. If you are one of the many couples looking to plan a small wedding, here’s a few things to consider when planning.

1. Budget Friendly

Weddings are one of the most important days for couples. Big weddings mean big budgeting. Expenses range from food and drinks, tables and chairs, decorations, venue, reception party, and so much more. Having a small wedding will cost you less and cause you less stress. You can spend your budget on a honeymoon, expensive wedding items, or a new house.

2. Fewer Guests, More Intimacy

Guests are the most important part of wedding planning. With a small, intimate wedding this means you can greet and talk to everyone on your big day. You only invite the people you care about and close friends. You are surrounded by good friends, positive energy, and the people that matter most to you.

3. Venue Creativity

Cutting the budget on the guest list will offer you a chance to pick your favorite wedding venue. Typically, weddings are held in a hotel ballroom, but that’s too cliché. With fewer guests, you can have a wedding at your favorite restaurant, backyard, boutique hotel, or in a park. Choose a place that best describes who you both are.

4. Perfection Doesn’t Matter

When it comes to the wedding day, anything can go wrong, even with perfect plans. Small weddings are more flexible than big weddings. Problems can easily be fixed if something is not right.

5. Add Personality

With a small wedding, you can make the day your own. You can add a little more creativity to the decorations, flower arrangements, and even with your favorite catering. You can choose to spend your budget on your favorite designer wedding gown or jewelry.

6. More Interactions, Less Distractions

One of the benefits of a small wedding is being able to mingle with your guests. You will be able to share your special day with everyone you invite. You will spend more time talking, taking photos, and drinking with the people who mean the most to you.

7. Enjoy the Moment

Big weddings are fast paced- starting with the formal ceremony, taking hundreds of photos, greeting all the guests, and then changing dresses and make up for the reception party. When you downsize your wedding, you don’t have to rush through everything. You will have time to breathe and live in the moment and atmosphere around you.

8. Make Your Own Rules

Small weddings allow you to plan on your own terms. If you don’t like formal, traditional ceremonies, you design it with fewer traditional elements. For example, you don’t have to have a large group of bridesmaids or groomsmen, you can select only one or two.

9. Hire a Wedding Planner

Even though you are planning a small wedding, there is still so much to do. Hiring a wedding planner allows you to relay your ideas to the professional and let them do their job. They can create a unique wedding that fulfills your dreams with a budget-friendly price.
