Planning a wedding for 2025

Where are you located? Here on the Gulf coast of Florida there are many lovely restaurants located on the beach with water views. Many do private parties with no "body count" minimum, instead having a dollar amount minimum. We had our lovely wedding with 45 people in attendance. So, maybe start checking that out instead of a big banquet type reception venue.

I live in New York. We were going to do a destination wedding but it was going to cost us a lot more than we thought. Places around us want between a minimum of 100-125 people and we don't even have 50 people. OK will do thank you so much!
