Dream venue slightly to small

Rebecca, 23 June, 2021 at 17:36 Posted on Planning 0 4
Hi everyone first time posting. Just wondering has anyone been in the same boat. We have looked at venues for a small intimate wedding 30 guests but are finding it hard to find venues that we like for a small wedding. Found an amazing venue but can only have 25 guests even though there website states up to 30 guests. Would yous look else (we have looked at 7 venues) or take people off your guests list? Thought a small wedding would be easier but finding it hard to even find a venue we both love what do small weddings.

    Is this because of covid restrictions that the places are saying 25 instead of 30 like the websites?
    Everything is up in air with weddings and venues at the moment so that could be making it harder to find a venue even if you are planning for the future.

    I’d potentially go for loosing guests if it’s the dream venue as you don’t know if everyone would come etc. If you are sure all guests would come and you want them there maybe try a bigger venue as you don’t know what will happen in the future (kids, partners etc) ❤️

    It is the standard amount before covid as it is a tree house as we also enquired last year and they said 25 guests but now since covid the website says 30 which is strange. The wedding would start later as well 5pm so I am thinking I wouldn’t want people to just stay for the ceremony and go home say 8pm as I feel like it would be a waste of a guest and £50pp as well. The venue also offer other rooms for weddings but 30 people would seem lost in the rooms as the other smallest room is for 80 people.

    Could they screen the larger off so you don’t loose the atmosphere ? Worth asking

    Unfortunately that is with half of it screened off. Just a shame as our guest list is only to big by 5 people so I think that’s what makes it a little more annoying.
