Tips for an intimate wedding…..
Your worries addressed….
Do people dance at a smaller wedding?
You bring the energy to any wedding, whether that’s 20 people or 200! Make sure the area you have chosen for dancing isn’t too big - people feel safer when busting out their best moves when they don’t have too much wide open space around them. Good music is key; create an intensifying atmosphere by having the music during dinner becoming more ‘dancey’ as the evening progresses.
How do you have speeches with less guests?
Speeches will always have a place at a wedding in our minds, but the way you schedule them doesn’t have to be the typical one after another roll-out! If you’re having a welcome party, why don’t you as a couple speak then? A parent speaking is always nice on a wedding day and then instead of a single best man speech you could ask a few friends to say something short over dinner.
Is it worth having a planner if we are only having 25 guests?
It is ALWAYS worth having a good planner in our eyes. Remember a planner doesn’t necessarily coordinate guests, so it doesn’t hugely change their responsibilities having fewer people. Sourcing a suitable venue, finding trusted suppliers, liaising with this team during the planning and on the day, coordinating paperwork, managing budgets - all of this falls under a standard planner’s remit. Without one, are you ready to take all of this on yourselves and still walk into your wedding day stress-free?
