Not only will you find that small weddings may be more intimate and personal in nature, but they’re generally also much less expensive than larger options.

If you have a larger budget but want to spend more of it on other types of vendors, then a smaller wedding venue may also be for you! What you could spend the “extra” budget on is endless.
