Tips for Planning a Small Wedding Reception

Planning a wedding reception for a smaller guest list can be both exciting and a little daunting. Here are a few tips to help you create a memorable celebration:

- Consider a non-traditional venue. Small, unique venues like art galleries, tea rooms, or even your own backyard can provide a more intimate and personal atmosphere for your reception.

- Create a relaxed seating plan. Arrange the tables in a way that encourages conversation and interaction among your guests, such as long communal tables or intimate round tables.

- Personalise your décor. Add special touches that reflect your personality and style, such as DIY decorations, family photos, or meaningful mementos.
