Making a Minimony Feel Special

I plan on doing things the way my Fh and I want to and not change things to accommodate guests.

We plan on exchanging vows outside with only 3 guests and then go out to eat to a restaurant of our choice regardless of what our guests like

I’ve seen some posts on here about this & how to make your day still feel special. I just googled it & this popped up!

We’re not cheating ourselves since we are having a minimony (our original wedding was downgraded from 250 to 25 people). We are still having an awesome wedding with all of the elements we wanted, just on a smaller scale.

I had a minimony and I loved my day. My only complaint was the weather so I couldn't get some pics esp my sundown pics. Our two friends loved our day and they had the big wedding.
I still got ready and took getting ready pics.
Had my photographers and the ceremony. Went to a restaurant after and did a cake cutting there and with our personalized champagne flutes and had a great time with great friends. Wasn't the typical wedding but had such a great day.

You’ll be getting married. So that alone makes it special.

My husband and I had a minimony and we loved it, no complaints at all. We did almost everything that would happen at a normal wedding just on a smaller scale, for 35 guests. We are looking forward to celebrating with our family and friends for our big wedding as well

My husband and I had a minimony last Friday, it was still the most special day of my life. I still got my hair and makeup done and my sisters and friend got our nails done together. We also decorated my sisters back yard. The intimacy I think also added another level of special as well! What ever you decide to do, it will still be special because the day is about you and your partner.

We had a backyard wedding with 9 people total, including us. We rented an arch, got the corsages, bouts, bouquets, and arch flowers professionally done. We DIY'd the chair flowers. Having a flowered arch with the chairs really transformed the space. Seeing every guest in attendance with body flowers or a bouquet was a visual reminder that everyone there was a VVIP. Our photographer was amazing. I wore my cathedral veil with my train, and DH wore a tux. We got an 8 in, 4 layer wedding cake. It was the perfect size! We both got hair and makeup done.


I was originally going to skimp out, but I'm glad I didn't!

It definitely felt and looked like a wedding.

Hey girl,

We only had 6 guests at our’s in October and it was quite special. We got creative with physically distanced photos and we just had a ceremony (no reception or anything) as we’re planning a larger event in the Spring. We integrated traditions into the ceremony that were unique and special such as a Sutra to remember those who have passed. We had a seat in honor of my MIL who passed just a few weeks prior. What are some things that are unique to you? Ways you can honor guests who can’t be there in person, etc. and honor those who are with you to make them feel apart of it?
