In this day and age when everything seems to be larger-than-life, over-the-top and out-of-this world, it’s refreshing to see things being done in a very simple way. This is probably the reason why some people still choose to have a small and intimate wedding. But since there are more couples who are into grand wedding worthy of Hollywood, it is hard to find information on how to have a small and intimate wedding. Luckily for you, you can find some very useful tips below.
Make your own wedding favours
An intimate wedding means having only a few guests. This would allow you to create a more personalised wedding favour. This is your chance to let out the Martha Stewart within you. If you are not particularly good with crafting, then at least you can spend more time (and money) getting special tokens for those who will share your special day with you.
Get everyone involved
If you are planning to invite only a handful on your wedding then why not assign a role to each one? Have a funny best friend? Then ask him or her to be the emcee. Have a brother who is good with computers? Then ask him to design your wedding invitation. Is your mom crazy about flowers? Then this is her chance to be a florist even for just a day. By getting most if not all of your guests involved you will not only be able to save money, you can also be sure that your wedding will have unique personal touches that you will always remember.
Choose a small intimate wedding venue
With wedding venues for all types of weddings and taste, it can be a daunting task to choose the right venue for your special day. Rather than going for a big to medium size venue, choose an intimate wedding venue. This way, the reception will be filled and not look empty. This allows guests to feel more comfortable and relaxed.
By following these ideas on how to have a small and intimate wedding, your wedding will surely be memorable even without the glitz and glamour.
