Tips for Planning a Small Wedding Reception

Planning a wedding reception for a small guest list can be just as exciting and rewarding as a larger event. Consider these tips:

  • Choose a venue that reflects your style: Small venues come in all shapes and sizes, from cosy cottages to charming bistros. Select a setting that aligns with your vision and the number of guests you'll be hosting.
  • Create a personalised menu: Caterers and restaurants can accommodate smaller guest lists with exquisite and affordable menus. Consider sharing platters, buffet-style options, or a multi-course meal tailored to your tastes.
  • Pay attention to details: Even with a small guest count, it's the little touches that make your reception special. Personalise the space with candles, flowers, and meaningful decor that reflects your unique bond.

Wedding Venue Essentials

When selecting a small wedding venue, consider these key factors:

  • On-site accommodation: If guests will be travelling from afar, look for venues with on-site cottages or rooms to provide a convenient and memorable stay.
  • Catering options: Many small venues offer in-house catering services to streamline planning and ensure your reception flows seamlessly.
  • Booking timeline: While smaller weddings may not require as much notice as larger events, it's always wise to book your venue well in advance, especially if you're planning a popular wedding date.
