Sarasota Intimate Weddings

3.26.21

With 2020 throwing the wedding and event industry for quite a loop, wedding vendors and venues have had to get quite creative last year. We are seeing the intimate wedding trend continue into 2021 as well. Complete Weddings + Events Sarasota is no different. We understand that couples have been forced to downsize their guest lists but still want their wedding day to be magical so we have worked together with some of our amazing venue partners to put together Intimate wedding packages.

Sarasota Intimate Weddings, Where to begin?

These smaller events are not only a cost-saving alternative to a traditional wedding. They are an intimate affair that can be as unique as you are. With a smaller guest list, there are more options for locations and catering. With the current happenings in the world, many couples are having issues with friends and family traveling. Intimate Weddings can be a solution.

Imagine a normal wedding celebration, just on a smaller scale. Intimate weddings typically still have a ceremony and reception with dinner, décor, cake, and entertainment. The event hosts only 40 people or less generally.

Think about your ideal timeframe and solidify a venue first. The biggest difference here is that intimate weddings allow for many more event location options, inside or outside. From the stage of theatre to a shady spot in your best friend’s backyard, micro weddings don’t have to be confined to a standard wedding venue. Understanding the estimated number of guests and your vision for the day (urban, bohemian, formal, garden, ethereal, modern tropical, rustic, etc.) will help guide you on what type of location to be looking for.

Minimalist or Magnificent?

Tiny houses and capsule wardrobes are outcomes of those looking to achieve more minimalistic lifestyles. A smaller guest list means less seating, centerpieces, linens, food, and the list goes on. According to The Knot’s 2019 Real Weddings Study, the average wedding last year cost over $33,000. The average Intimate wedding can be achieved for under $10,000.

However, this doesn’t mean an Intimate wedding can’t be lavish.  However, this doesn’t mean the couple is throwing a frugal, thrifty wedding. Intimate weddings allow a couple to bring their true wedding day vision to life with more budget! If you’re looking to splurge on a unique venue, a customized catered meal, or lavish décor, you can still save money in the end when you are working with a smaller guest list.

The Services you need…

Photography

When throwing an intimate wedding, we still suggest hiring a photographer to capture your unique day. Quality photos of you and your spouse are a must! Plus your favorite people in the entire world will all be together! You’ll want all this captured to look back on for years to come.

Music

Whether you want a dance-off to emerge or an evening of sing-a-long tunes around the fire pit, music helps bring your space to life! Set the atmosphere with music from when guests arrive to the final slow dance of the evening. Hire a DJ to make announcements, provide microphones for any speeches, and to create the soundtrack to the day of your dreams.

Choosing videography for your intimate wedding is a great option to be able to share the day with all those who wish they could have made the tiny invite list.
