Intimate weddings

Lately, couples have been opting for smaller and more intimate weddings. It could be because of a tight budget, COVID-19, or just because they’re low-key people.

Whatever the reason, intimate weddings can still be elegant and memorable. For starters, it provides you with many options that include personalizing your ceremony, having an exclusive guest list, etc. If you’re planning to have a small wedding, here are fun ideas to incorporate into your big day!

 ●      Use Sophisticated Invitations

Even if you’re minimizing your budget, having an intimate wedding kind of spells executive, and you should be able to reflect that, even if it’s in small ways.

Your invitations can include an item or two that are sophisticated or lavish, such as wax seals. Also, you may use handwritten invitations, addressing your guests individually. It spells intimacy and detail; your guests will be impressed.

●      Make It A Destination Wedding

A destination wedding is a wedding you host far from home. Perhaps a place you’ve always dreamed of going on a vacation with your partner. A place you can decide to have your nuptials.

However, the meaning of destination weddings has immensely evolved over the years. You can have a destination wedding at any place. You may not necessarily go abroad or to an overly fancy site, especially if you’re strict with your budget.

●      Use Personalized Welcome Favors

Welcome favors are inevitably important for intimate weddings. It’s a way of showing that you’re happy to see your guests and grateful that they made out time to celebrate your big day with you.

When you’re handing out wedding favors, be sure they’re personalized by adding items that reflect your wedding location and personal style. Also, you may use gift boxes instead of the usual tote bags.

●      Have A Menu Upgrade

One of the advantages of small and intimate weddings is serving upgraded menus, such as unique wine pairings, fun food presentations, etc. For a wedding with a larger number of guests, it won’t be practical.

Whether you’re having a lavish or an intimate wedding, having vendors that know how best to meet your wedding needs can make all the difference.
