The benefits of a small wedding venue:

Choosing a venue is the first step most couples take when planning their wedding. With intimate weddings rising in popularity it's important to find a venue that feels most like "you". Choosing your venue will also depend heavily on how many guests you will be inviting!

• No stress: Having a smaller wedding with a smaller guest count will definitely limit stress on many levels.

• Bigger budget: Choosing a smaller wedding venue will allow you to splurge on things like your photographer, florist and other vendors!

• Spending more time: During your wedding at your smaller venue you will be able to spend more time with your guests as it will be a more intimate space.
