If you’ve decided to press ahead with your wedding this year or next, it’s likely you’re feeling a little overwhelmed with trying to figure out how to squeeze the plans you had for your big day into a much smaller occasion.
With fewer people attending than you might have envisaged, the guest experience will need to be high on the agenda and key for your inspiration for the day. Here are some top locally-inspired tips.
THE GUEST LIST
Struggling to cut your guest list down? Look at your text messages and calls and only invite those you have spoken to in the past three months – we usually converse more regularly with the people who matter most.
OWN IT
Rather than worrying about all the things you won’t be able to do, think about all the little touches that you can add to make it feel exclusive. This could be hiring a private chef or a sommelier that can offer private tasting as part of the day. Working with a wedding planner will help ensure you have a seamless and memorable day from start to finish.
