5 benefits of opting for an intimate wedding
More memories, less stress.
Indian weddings are known for their grandeur. Many families spend a huge chunk of their savings (some also take loans) on weddings, just to make them larger than life. But an event that’s supposed to celebrate the union of two individuals should not make one feel uncomfortable or stressed. Big weddings are fun, but intimate weddings are good, too. One should be able to opt for the kind they want, without the pressure of sticking to a certain standard.
In fact, it’s not just about the money. It’s about how you want to celebrate your day. If you want just your close ones, then be it. The Covid-19 pandemic led to several individuals having smaller weddings and people have loved it.
Here’s why small weddings are a great option!
Intimacy and meaningful connections
A small wedding allows you to spend quality time with your closest family and friends. It creates an intimate atmosphere that fosters meaningful connections and allows for more personal interactions with each guest. By inviting only those who are truly important to you, you can prioritise quality relationships over societal expectations or obligations. It also intensifies the emotions and overall experience, and you can fully immerse yourself in the moment and create cherished memories with your loved ones.
Cost-effectiveness
Intimate weddings are generally more budget-friendly. With fewer guests, you can save money on venue expenses, catering, decorations, and other aspects. This can free up resources for other priorities, such as your honeymoon or future financial goals.
Less stress and planning
Planning a large wedding can be overwhelming, with numerous details to manage and coordinate. Opting for a small wedding simplifies the planning process, reduces stress, and allows you to focus on the details that matter most to you. Small weddings can be easier to manage, logistically. From seating arrangements and transportation, to accommodations, it is often simpler to coordinate logistics for a smaller group, which can alleviate stress and streamline the planning process.
Flexibility and customisation
With a smaller guest list, you have more flexibility to choose unique venues that may not accommodate larger crowds. You can also personalise the wedding experience, focusing on individual preferences and creating a more tailored event. In fact, if you dream of having a destination wedding, a smaller guest list can make it more feasible. It is often easier to coordinate travel arrangements and accommodations for a smaller group, making your dream destination more attainable.
Sustainability and environmental Impact
Choosing an intimate wedding can have a positive environmental impact. With fewer guests, there is less energy consumption, waste generation, and carbon emissions associated with the event.
