A big wedding, which bride to be doesn't dream of this? Are you in doubt about whether or not to move your wedding because of the Conora virus? Of course, in the current situation it's possible to celebrate your wedding smaller and more intimate, and this can be just as special! When you organize a small wedding, you go for a more intimate party. The guest list consists of 20 to 50 guests that you know really well and this has its advantages. For example, did you find it very difficult to choose who you do and don't invite to your wedding? With an intimate wedding you no longer have to feel guilty. It's all about friends and family. During an intimate wedding the couple has more time for their guests and they can talk to their guests longer.

Besides the advantage that you can really speak to the guests, there are several advantages you can benefit from when you organize an intimate wedding. A second advantage is that you are less in the spotlight, this can be very relaxing during personal speeches to each other or your guests. When your wedding goes from 'big' to 'intimate' you can save a lot of money, which can make you go for things that became too expensive or not possible at a big wedding. Go for more luxurious bites and drinks, a nicer all-in-one detailing or go for that perfect evening dress. Also contact your booked suppliers if and how they can contribute to your wedding.

Do you choose not to move the wedding, but to celebrate it smaller? This saves you a lot of phone calls and emails (no bridezilla for you) to organizations, locations, catering etc, but also finding a new date when all parties are available is not that easy. After all, you are certainly not the only couple hesitating to have their big day a year or even 2 years later. Of course you want to say I do to each other as soon as possible and celebrate this with your loved ones and friends.

Many brides choose to have their wedding date and/or names printed on napkins, cutlery and thank you notes, we love it! Unfortunately, many brides can no longer use this decoration by moving their wedding. If your wedding goes ahead anyway, this personalized decoration is not made for nothing and you can just show it on your intimate wedding.

If you opt for a smaller wedding, then look for the location that suits you perfectly. Of course you don't want to come across other weddings that day and it is so relaxing for your guests to be able to stay at the same location all day. Some locations have spaces that are suitable for more intimate weddings and where you can be together in a cozy way.

An intimate wedding often does not have a party, this also means that the daily schedule changes or is different than you are used to. On this day there are no deadlines and you can have a nice dinner. After dinner, you can talk about your perfect day and end with a toast. Cheers!
If you still want a party, choose for example to get married on Saturday and celebrate on Sunday. That way your wedding day remains intimate, but on day 2 you can celebrate the big party. Of course, you can also invite more guests.

We hope that by reading this blog you have gained enough inspiration to move your wedding or intimate celebration of your big day.
