Any micro wedding brides (20 guests)?

Jazmin, on February 2, 2019 at 11:40 AM Posted in Planning 0 27

Hi, I'm having a micro wedding with only 20 guests, but I'm having a hard time finding references or pictures from a wedding as small as mine. I think it might not be so common after all, and I was just wondering if any of you had or will be having a 20 guests wedding and if this is your case, how was your experience?

    I was feeling the same way with a group of 25 so we've upped it to 30 since a lot of venues have higher minimums.

    I went to a wedding with about 30 guests. It was a beach wedding with reception at a nice seafood restaurant afterwards. Food was delicious (passed family style) and it was an open bar. I was told it was the restaurant that had an all inclusive package so they had an officiant for the wedding and whatnot.

    We are getting married on the beach in Mexico in April with 15 people in attendance.

    There’s only 9 guest for my wedding. It is a little difficult trying to find help since there’s not a lot of info out there but it’s totally doable and not that stressful once you figure out your vision.
    we rented a beach house for everyone and we are getting married on the beach. We have a bartender, private chef, and a musician (for the ceremony). Since it’s a beach wedding we rented a large golf cart for people to get around. We have chairs for the ceremony that will double as dinner chairs.
    Once you figure out the style you want it becomes easier because you can splurge on what you want without all the expenses that a large wedding comes with

    We had 15 guests and went full out with our DW. Two soloists, happy hour, 5-star family style food & wine in a wine cave. We put 3 farm tables together to create one big & fun dining experience.

    What are you having a hard time envisioning? The ceremony? The reception tables? Can you post a pic of your venue?

    I love the idea of everybody sitting at the same table! That sounds very warm and family like. Smiley smile

    Our guest list is 25 as well. We r doing everything we would have done with a big wedding just on a smaller scale. Our venue for ceremony and reception is a very upscale italian restaurant. We rented backdrop and lighting, i am making our centerpieces and doing all decor which wont be much because its not a huge room.

    I am having a wedding of 15 and I am finding it super hard finding pictures for the ceremony and reception. I just find it weird having a really long banquet size table so I think I decided to have my side including wedding party + spouse in 1 table which is 9 people and his parents and grandparents at one other which is 6 people. But my issue is his parents are divorced and they both have significant others. Not sure if that will clash or if it will be ok

    Thank you, Maria! That's exactly what we wanted; the reception dinner to feel warm and family-like. Here's the decor and then the feast being enjoyed.

    Thank you! The gold candelabras I found online for about $20/each. The venue provided the wood tables, cross-back chairs, glassware and our choice of color linens. I only rented a few specialty items for the dining table to make the theme pop: gold glass chargers, gold flatware, copper dazzle chair cushions. I made the menu on Zazzle and the place cards were $.25 each from Disneyland!

    Oh, that's great.

    We have a clear vision and mostly everything paid for, but I like to see wedding videos on YouTube and I find it almost impossible to see videos of micro weddings.

    Oh just finding wedding videos on youtube. I think it would help me a lot to envision the day.
