Sometimes less really is more. Smaller guest counts can mean bigger impact, deeper connection, and more budget for personal details.
1) Guest List
- 20–50 people: Just closest family and friends.
- Clear invites: Be transparent with why you’re going small.
2) Venue Options
- Private homes: Cozy and personal.
- Boutique restaurants: Built-in catering and ambience.
- Scenic spots: National parks, gardens, or rooftops.
3) Budget Priorities
- Upgrades: With fewer guests, splurge on food, photography, or attire.
- Custom favors: Personal touches shine more at small weddings.
- Décor: Thoughtful details feel more intimate.
4) Guest Experience
- Activities: Wine tastings, boat rides, or shared cooking classes.
- Seating: Long family-style tables foster connection.
- Timing: Shorter days or extended weekends work well.
