Treat Your Guests to an Intimate Celebration
Couples have had to keep an eye on the latest COVID-19 developments to understand how the evolving federal and provincial guidelines impact their wedding plans, and many couples have had to trim down their guest list to adhere to the latest guidelines. However, intimate gatherings have given couples more room in their budget to make their special day truly unique and memorable for their guests!
Read on for the latest tips on how to make your special day a memorable one for your intimate gathering!
A Fitting Venue
Having a small guest list means you have more flexibility to find unique venue options to accommodate your guests and your taste! Whether you’re looking for an intimate private dining room or hosting a classically themed event, hotels and banquet halls can transform their space to suit your vision. Winery Estates and Golf & Country Clubs can accommodate both indoor and outdoor settings offering your guests with exquisite backdrops, while charming Inns offer your guests with quaint rooms to host your occasion and on-sight accommodations!
A Culinary Experience
Wow your guests with a memorable culinary experience! A smaller guest list allows the chef to spoil you and your guests by creating an exquisite menu. Treat your guests to a selection of foods that you would not regularly have and consider adding food that you both love as a couple to ensure that your menu is uniquely you!
Celebratory Drinks
Treat your guests with signature cocktails complete with seasonal garnishes (think slices of soaked pears for a summer celebration) in addition to more simple mixes, and beer and wine offerings. For a personal touch, consider adding clever names featuring your favourite spirits.
A Day Full of Entertainment
Invite a caricature artist to offer your guests a good laugh and a keepsake. Get your guests talking by having your local art gallery install art throughout your event. Add a fun photobooth with unique decoration pieces. Invite a barista to serve up some latte art. Surprise your guests with a food truck serving after dinner snacks. Your guests are sure to be entertained and remember your celebration long after the day has passed!
Intimate gatherings offer couples with the opportunity to spend more time with each of their guests, and to re-allocate their budget to the areas most important to them, to ensure their wedding day is a personal and memorable occasion!
