Tips to help you Plan a Small and Intimate Wedding

From 3arf

Your wedding is supposed to be one of the most important days of your life, and a day that you will always remember. That's why it's important to be sure that you're making the right decision when you're planning your wedding. There are thousands of different options available for you to make your special day absolutely perfect.

Some people imagine themselves having a huge, glamorous wedding with hundreds of guests, live entertainment, etc.  But throwing a small wedding can be incredibly breathtaking, and provide a more personal feeling to the event.  It will be more intimate and will certainly be just as memorable as a big wedding. If you plan on throwing a small, intimate wedding there are some things you can do to help make sure your wedding is a hit and absolutely perfect for you.

Make sure that your friends and family understandWhen you're throwing a small, intimate wedding, some people are bound to feel left out if they're not invited. That makes it important for you to talk to them about your feelings; be firm, it is your special day after all.  Don't worry about hurting anyone's feelings, because you can always throw a party afterward to celebrate, and invite as many people as you would like.

Take pictures and videoThis is something that every couple should do for their wedding day, because it is a day to remember, and photographs and videos are some of the best ways to do so. In addition, recording the wedding will help you to share it with your other loved ones who were not able to attend the ceremony.  It is sure to help people feel more involved in the actual wedding, even if they were not there to experience it in person.

Choose a suitable locationMany people don't consider the size of a location as seriously as they should, especially when they are preparing to have a small wedding.  The place where the ceremony takes place needs to be properly sized.  If it is too large and spacious for a limited number of guests, it can make the wedding feel like it is lacking something, rather than making it feel intimate like it should. Instead, consider a smaller location that will properly fit all of your guests without making them feel cramped, but not having too much additional space left over.

Make it personalBecause your guest list will be much shorter than a typical wedding, you are able to make your wedding more personal toward the guests, in addition to yourselves.  You can ask guests for their opinions on the food that will be served, and try to cater to their desires (after putting your own wants first, because it is your special day).  You can give personalized gifts to each guest, and ask everyone to say a few words on your behalf.  These things will help to make your wedding more special and memorable for everyone.

No matter what you decide to do for your wedding, it is sure to be a beautiful and memorable experience. This is one of the most important days of your life, and you should not stress over the planning too much. Love every second of it, because your wedding day is the start of a new life for you and your spouse, and it will be a great one.
