Is a live band too much for a smaller wedding?

We are downsizing our 150 person wedding (with a 5 piece band) to 45 people and with no live music because we are substituting our grand reception for an intimate sit down dinner which obviously would be quite out of place to have a live band perform at.

For a wedding with 90 people, so long as your intention is to have dancing, I don't see any reason why a live band would feel out of place. It doesn't matter if you have 90 or 140, if people want to dance, they will

What you do, your guests will follow. So if you and your future husband will be dancing, then most guests will follow your lead and join you on the dance floor. I've never been to a wedding with a live band, but I think it would be cool, even with a smaller crowd. 90 people isn't really that small, either, so I think it'll be just as fun as 140 people.

This gives me some much needed peace of mind...thank you, Sarah!

I think it'll still feel appropriate if your desire is to have people dancing. 90 people is still a decent size wedding!
