Wedding format

Carlos, 27 April, 2025 at 16:21 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 2

We are faced with a choice: what wedding format to choose - a traditional one with a large number of guests or a more intimate celebration with the closest people? What, in your opinion, is more memorable and special - a huge wedding party or a cozy event for a couple of dozen people? I am waiting for your advice and ideas!

    Either can be memorable and special. You just need to work out what you want. I know it's really boring, but try working out your budget first, because that is going to narrow down your options. Also, it might help to think how you like to celebrate other important events - e.g. if you are having a significant birthday, do you tend to go for a huge party with dozens of guests or do you prefer a quiet meal with a few close friends? If you and your partner answer that one differently, it's a bit trickier, and you'll have to work out a compromise, but it's a good place to start. My OH and I both dislike large groups of people and hate being the centre of attention, so for us, a small wedding was a no brainer. But I have friends who are real party animals who had 200+ at their wedding!

    Hello!

    Choosing between a large traditional wedding and an intimate celebration depends on your personalities and priorities. Large weddings offer vibrant energy and the joy of celebrating with a wide circle, creating memories of grand moments and broad support. Intimate weddings provide deeper txtag connections and quiet joy, allowing for more personal interactions and tailored experiences, with memories rooted in heartfelt moments and close bonds. Neither is inherently more memorable; consider your preferred energy, must-have guests, desired interactions, budget, and envisioned atmosphere. Personal touches can make either format special. Ultimately, the best choice is the one that feels most authentic to you as a couple.
