Sometimes, A Smaller Wedding is Better
Amanda and Adam chose to have a very small wedding in Banff, Canada with less than 10 of their closest friends and family in attendance.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic the wedding industry around the world has taken a huge hit. Many vendors and venues have closed up shop. Couples planning on getting married have faced a tough choice between canceling, downsizing or postponing their special day.
Having been forced to downsize, many couples have been surprised by how enjoyable their smaller weddings have been. Even when it comes to planning, several of my clients have voiced how the smaller events were a joy to plan compared to their larger weddings that they ended up canceling. They felt they could leave a more personalized mark on their wedding day.
Obviously not everyone wants a small wedding, and there is a time and place for larger and more grandiose celebrations, but for those that do chose to downsize, the benefits are substantial.
Small weddings can:
-be more cost effective
-be more eco friendly
-be more intimate and personalized
-open up more places to host such as backyards and vacation rentals
Perhaps the biggest difference between large weddings and small weddings is the reduction in stress levels of all people involved, vendors, couples and guests.
In response to this new trend of smaller wedding events I’ve created another package in my lineup of wedding coverage. It’s called the Bronze Package and it offers 5 hours of wedding day coverage which I find is the sweet spot for the smaller, more intimate weddings. As always, I’m more than happy to customize any package to fit your particular needs. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions!
