How is an Intimate Wedding Different from the Usual?

The term 'intimate wedding' has become a buzzword since more and more people started to realize that the pandemic is set to make significant and lasting changes to the wedding industry. It's been around for a long time, but it wasn't as mainstream as it is now. So to answer your question, here are a few things that set it apart from the usual weddings!

Guest list

Let's start off with the obvious. As you know by now, an intimate wedding allows you to stick to a smaller guest list. Think 50 guests or less. We know trimming the guest list would be a struggle especially that Filipinos are strongly filial, and for sure there will be upset titas because they didn't make it to the list. Just make sure to communicate well with them, that you're opting for an intimate wedding. During this time, it's the safer option, too!

Planning

Traditional weddings require a lot of work - more suppliers needed, more activities to keep your guests entertained,and a bigger venue! Once you go for an intimate wedding, making plans is easier - spot the right suppliers and think of the stress that you won't be dealing with impressing the guests.

Budget

Fewer guests mean more money saved! You can work with a budget and still have a marvelous wedding. If there's an extra, you can get more bang for your buck when you spend more on fewer people.

Experience

Your wedding is one of the most memorable days of your life. And an intimate one allows you to create more personal memories, as you can spend more time with all your guests. No rushed photo ops, just a laidback celebration of love!

Expectations

Since intimate weddings are more relaxed, there will be fewer things and logistics to worry about. You won't have to worry about disappointing anyone because there will be fewer expectations to live up to. Remember, when it comes to your wedding, you do you!
