With the current situation, it can be a real task to shrink down your wedding from a grand affair to a cozy and intimate one. But it can also be a blessing in disguise for so many reasons like saving bucks, having only the nearest and dearest at your wedding, Being candid and what not. The pro list is endless guys!
So, if you have been toying with the idea of how to go about with your intimate wedding then don’t worry cuz we’ve come up with some great ideas of how you can now make your wedding a dreamy affair which will be remembered by all
So my dear brides-to-be here’s a list of 10 things & tips to make your intimate wedding better and make it super special.
It can be really unfortunate for you to-be-brides to not be able to shop or invest in a lehenga right now cuz of the whole pandemic situation but on the other hand, this can turn out to be the perfect opportunity for you soon-to-be brides to don your mother or grandmother’s royal saree or some outfit that you’ve always wanted to wear, growing up. This will make your wedding so special not just for you but also for your maternal side of family girls!
Remember those jewels of your mummy or nani that you played dress-up with while growing up? Well, it’s time to hunt for those jewels again and this time wear it on one of the most important days of your life. Guys, I’m telling you, nothing looks more classy than wearing a family heirloom with the perfect saree or lehenga!
Even though the wedding will only have about 50 guests, you can’t forget about the food as this number is not small when it comes to preparing food. To make sure that your fam doesn’t spend most of their time fussing over the food or staying in the kitchen when they should be celebrating you and your other half, come up with a list of easy D.I.Y dishes which take no time to prepare and fill stomachs soon.
You can go with food items like popsicles, smoothies, chaat, pani puri, etc. These are super easy to prepare and with an intimate wedding, you’ve got the chance to include all the dishes you love. A win-win, no?
Looking for easy tips for your intimate wedding? If you’re one of those brides who always wanted to hand out little souvenirs for your guests to remember your wedding then there’s no time better than right now to whip up a bag of little somethings for your guests. You can add items like personalized Jenga, fresh jam, or even add D.I.Y soaps to the hampers. I promise every time your guests use these things, they’ll remember your intimate wedding!
Are you and your hubby suckers for music? Do your feet tap on the rhythm of a good song? Then add the music of your taste to your wedding. Who says it has to be a silent wedding or you want some white noise with the one made by your guests? I say go all out and update your Spotify list for your wedding day. After all, you’re only gonna have your nearest and dearest and nobody from that lot will object y’all!
Grooms and brides, did you always dream of entering your wedding in a luxury car in style or a classy chaadar and now you cannot fulfill your wish due to the lockdown wedding? If yes, then don’t worry cuz we’ve got the ultimate alternative. You’ll have to do a little D.I.Y for this but we’re sure this will crack up your entire friends and family for sure!
Make your wedding a fun and worth-remembering day by having the funniest and the sassiest quotes. Guys, there’s nothing guests remember better than a good laugh and this is how you can manage to bring out some!
I think there’s not one person who hasn’t played some sort of a board game or online game while quarantining at home. Make use of your skills which we’re pretty sure you’ve mastered by now by incorporating them to your wedding day. This is also the perfect chance to involve all those guests who are witnessing your wedding day on a zoom call in some games.
Why not go all out at your intimate wedding while you’re at it? It’s time to find that sewing kit or better- if your grandma loves to sew and would agree to sew your wedding garlands then there’s nothing better than that. We know this is something that will stay close to your heart forever!
Yes guys, having an eco-friendly wedding is a thing. If you hate wastage and want to play a role in doing some good, then there’s no better opportunity than your wedding.
Since you have the leverage of having only 50 guests (who are gonna be your family members and best buds) you can make the wedding ceremony short and then convert it to an after-party. Not only will you get the perfect intimate and quaint reception but you won’t even have to go through the whole planning phase all over again.
Involving your guests at your wedding is probably the best gift you can give them and one way how you can achieve this is by asking them to give a toast or share the funniest memories they have of you and your other half. This will also turn out to be a memory you guys will cherish for your entire lifetime!
This idea is an oldie but a goodie- have polaroid cameras. If you don’t own one, we’re sure that some of those 50 guests might. Borrow their cameras and click some super candid photos with the wedding clan. Guys, these photos will survive and will probably be the most liked idea of your wedding.
