Small wedding

Lasherron, on June 14, 2019 at 6:56 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 2 27
Anyone having a small wedding? My Fiance’ and I will have less than 60 people attending. I’ve found that people are not as interested in our ceremony due to how small and quaint it will be.

    We're having about 60 guests at our wedding as well. We've never cared about having a big one to start with. Those who care will show up. Those not interested shouldn't matter.

    This is exactly how I feel about it. We’re inviting around 110 people, but we’re getting married on a Wednesday in October. The only reason why our number is even that big is because my side of the family breed like rabbits. 🙄 I had a hard time narrowing the number down, but there’s no way we could afford to feed all of those bunnies. 😂

    We had around 62 people come & we had invited 74. After all is said & done, people will do their best to come but might not make it & it is ok. You will be much more appreciative of those who do come & make sure you focus on that. They really love & support & care about your union & the progress of your future with your spouse and that’s really all that matters.

    We only had 15 at our DW and had a blast! We had 50 at our local reception which felt like a big but intimate party. 65 guests sounds great! 🎉

    🤣 same on my side of the family. I’m the oldest of 12. So I will have the most guests at the wedding needless to say.

    Wow!! I’m super impressed that you’re able to keep your guest list at only 60 with you being the oldest of 12! That’s amazing!!

    We are having a small wedding. Less than 50 people tops. We’re still 2 years out, but the people who care about it are the people we are inviting because they are the ones closest to us.

    We are having a small intimate with maybe 40 people if that. We will all be staying at a bed and breakfast at the beach with immediate family and close friends.

    LMAO! I feel it. Ours would have been that big but we were like no thanks. That's a lot of money and I don't talk to most of them like that anway so it wasn't that hard to decide not to invite them lol

    We're having less than 20 at our DW and maybe 80 at our local reception. Small and intimate is the way to go in my book.

    We had 40 guests and had an amazing wedding. We were able to splurge on our guests and give them an incredible weekend because we kept the guest list small. I don't think the size of the guest list has anything to do with how wonderful your wedding will be or if guests will be interested.

    We’re capping it at 75, but it will probably be closer to 60. I’m hoping smaller. The more intimate, the easier it will be for you to interact with your guests. And you can make it more special for the guests too because everything is more affordable with fewer guests. The ceremony is the most important part and the reason for the celebration. Those who care and show up are all that matter most, and there’s no shame in letting the rest fall by the wayside.

    We are considering a small wedding of about 60 people and thinking of eloping. Looking over our list of people I just don’t feel comfortable having people I barely spoke to in years attending or inviting people just because we feel as though we would have to .

    Ours is pretty small. So far we're inviting about 75 people. We haven't felt like people are uninterested at all. Everyone on the list are good friends or family so they all tell me how excited they are about the upcoming wedding. There have been a lot of people that we chose not to invite who have still expressed their best wishes. I'm excited to be able to see everyone and actually spend some time with my out of town family and friends.
