Hey You, yes you!! If you are planning a small, intimate wedding rather than grand celebrations or considering it as an option, this blog post is for you. 

People are probably aware of the advantages of organizing small-scale weddings, such as saving money or reducing wedding-planning stress. Given recent global events, such as rising costs and economic uncertainties, intimate weddings are more than just a passing trend they’re here to stay for the foreseeable future.

But did you know beyond these reasons an intimate wedding is personally beneficial for you? Below are some reasons Why?

Do What You Love

If planning a grand celebration, you might have to forget your dreamy wedding entry to keep the cake cutting or choose between a lavish floral setup and an extraordinary food and beverage menu.

But with a small wedding, you simply focus on what you love most whether it’s a cozy atmosphere, a unique venue, or personalized details.

Surround By People You Know

Weddings are all about love, heartfelt promises, and vulnerabilities that's why they are so personal. Its about the old phase of your life stitching with a whole new chapter.

Isn’t it?

Do you want to experience it with your brother’s cricket buddy? Sounds weird, right? Going for intimate weddings will allow you to be surrounded by people you know and love.

Hire Necessary Vendors With Leftover Money

Vendors have a year of expertise and they know how to seamlessly handle your wedding celebrations. They can make your wedding day totally yours. With a small-scale wedding you can think of hiring necessary ones you might have initially thought to skip.

However, if you are thinking that vendors will lower their prices like crazy, you have to do comparative research about pricing and how they can make an impact.

Pick Non-traditional Venues

Traditional wedding venues exist to accommodate average-sized groups. It won’t even make any financial sense to opt for these places. Everything from restaurants to backyard spaces to historic monuments to religious places to beaches you can go for any venue of your choice.

Consider that some ‘unusual’ venues also require some extra work to be done to get them fully furnished for a wedding….Make sure you’re prepared for it.

More Participation Of Your Guests

One of the biggest regrets of newlyweds is that they don't get enough time to spend with each other guests but with fewer guests, you can embrace the presence of everyone and each guest will feel truly valued. 

With a fewer guests count you can keep the atmosphere cozy and your guests will also get to know each other better. 

Smaller Guest List, Less Hard Feelings

Planning a small-scale wedding is a conscious decision. If you go for a large-scale wedding those who are excluded may feel like you hurt their feelings and left them intentionally.

But with fewer guests, it's easier for your guests to understand that your wedding is intimate and focused on close family and friends. Most people will support your decision.

Less Expectations

Your guests have been a part of many typical weddings and even tend to compare each other’s weddings about their food, guests, and way of planning. However, you tend to ditch this norm when you try something extraordinary.

With a smaller wedding party,  your guests will have fewer expectations to compare and critique. This gives you the freedom to break away from tradition and create a unique celebration that reflects your style, without the pressure of meeting anyone else’s standards.

Dare To Be Different

Why stick to the usual when you can make your wedding truly unforgettable?

Make your wedding a non-wedding day. Think outside the box-  If you end up with celebrations in 5,6 hours and you have more time for celebration you can try to host a bonfire night, plan a karaoke session, or even turn it into a weekend getaway with your closest friends and family

Fewer Chances of Mistakes

Greater involvement of people and a long day celebration can increase the likelihood of mistakes. However, in the case of intimate weddings, there are fewer elements involved which naturally reduces the complexity of planning. There’s also less room for logistical errors which means you can focus on what matters to you the most without feeling overwhelmed.

More Eco-friendly Marriage

A smaller guest list naturally means a small amount of waste is created. You can cut out your expenses on disposable items as weddings would be more eco-friendly. Whether it’s invitations, flowers, food, or décor, you’ll simply have less to manage which means lower cost and less waste.

Wrapping Up,

An intimate wedding isn’t for every couple but hopefully, through this article, you have got some insights on some of the wonderful advantages of having an intimate wedding over grand celebrations.

The most important thing to remember is why you and your fiance are getting wedlock and do what makes you happy.

And make sure to celebrate it with the people you love the most. 

Last but not least, Wishing you endless love and a future as bright as your wedding day!
