Intimate weddings are just normal weddings with a smaller guest list. They are often very relaxed and to a certain extent, non-traditional.
Although with weddings, most people will always say you either go big or go home, sometimes, an intimate wedding might be all you need.
Here are 8 reasons why intimate weddings are great to consider.
- More memorable and fun time with guests
The crowd at the big weddings always leaves the couple not even knowing who's present or absent. They would only be able to connect and have fun with a fraction, and there is a risk that the fraction might exclude some of their favourite people.
So, if one of your top priorities is to have time to connect with your loved ones on your big day, then you should consider having a small and intimate wedding.
- It is easier to plan
Planning is an important aspect of a wedding ceremony, and while there are event planners, not everyone can afford their service, or even willing to let go of the planning of their day to them.
Not having the burden of having to plan for a large crowd is a huge relief. And in the case of any challenge, it will usually be easier to handle for smaller weddings.
- Your guests will get to know each other
An intimate wedding gives your guests the opportunity to get to know each other better and also relate to each other.
You can be sure that your families will have the time needed to bond and celebrate the union more intimately, that they would have if there are hundreds of more people around.
- It is cost-effective
Clearly, having an intimate wedding will not cost as much as having a large wedding, and the supposed money for the wedding can be used resourcefully for the honeymoon.
Other reasons include:
- More time and money to plan and execute a great menu.
- You don't have to worry about 'bad energy'. They are a few selected people who you absolutely can trust.
- You can customize each aspect of the event.
- People will remember your heartfelt wedding for a long time.
In conclusion, an intimate wedding is the best for a couple who do not want to go under any stress of planning a big wedding, want to control the energy in the room 80% or does not want to have to deal withthe demand of a large crowd.
