Why are intimate weddings a growing trend?

Now #trending – smaller weddings have gained popularity as couples shift from large, traditional affairs to intimate celebrations. These smaller gatherings offer many advantages, making them an attractive option for couples.

1. You can personalize and create more meaningful connections

One of the biggest advantages of a smaller wedding is the ability to create a more personalized and meaningful experience. With fewer guests, you’ll be able to focus on the details that truly matter to you, from unique décor, personalizing the guest experience, to a more intimate ceremony. Also, with a smaller guest list, you and your partner can spend quality time with everyone!

2. It’s cost-effective without sacrificing your vision

Smaller weddings are typically more cost-effective. Instead of spending a huge portion of your budget on large venues and catering for hundreds, you can allocate your budget towards higher-quality elements such as gourmet food, unique entertainment, or even a more bougie honeymoon…if that’s your thing! This shift from quantity to quality allows for a more thoughtful and meaningful celebration.

3. Less stress…means more enjoyment

A smaller wedding also comes with way less stress. Fewer guests mean simpler logistics, from planning seating arrangements to managing catering. On the day, you can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere without the pressure of hosting hundreds of people, allowing you and your partner to be more present and savour each moment.

4. Get creative with what venue you book

With a smaller guest list, you have more flexibility in what venue you book. Instead of large banquet halls/events centres, you can explore intimate locations like private gardens, cozy restaurants, or even destination weddings. These unique settings can create an experience that reflects your style and personality.

5.  A smaller guest list can mean a more eco-friendly and sustainable day

Smaller weddings tend to be more eco-friendly. With fewer guests, there is naturally less waste, energy use, and travel-related emissions. If you’re a couple that values reducing their environmental impact/footprint, this is a great option to choose.

An intimate wedding can offer you a personalized wedding experience, reduced stress planning and on the day, but also allows more flexibility and creativity for you as a couple to show your true personality. By focusing on simplifying your day, you’ll add more joy to it!
