Under pressure to invite guests to your intimate wedding?
Planning an intimate wedding is a wonderful way to keep your day special and focused on what matters most: your love for each other. Inviting a few guests to share part of your day doesn't mean you have to change your vision. Here's how you can include your nearest and dearest while still enjoying the intimate wedding day you've dreamed of.

Keep It Personal
Start by inviting only your closest family and friends, the people who have been by your side through thick and thin and who will truly appreciate being part of such a special moment. A small, intimate guest list ensures you can focus on enjoying the day without feeling overwhelmed.

Plan a Beautiful Ceremony
Your ceremony is the heart of your wedding day, so make it personal to you as a couple. Consider asking a loved one to prepare a reading or writing personal vows to share with each other.
Capture the Moment
After the ceremony, take some time for photos with your guests. These will become cherished memories of your wedding day and the special people who were there to share it. Contact one of Tree Top Escape's recommended photographers, who specialise in intimate weddings, to capture your day beautifully.
Pop the Champagne
Invite your guests to join you for a celebratory toast with champagne. This is a lovely way to thank them for being part of your day. Keep it simple with a few light canapes or a grazing board. This brief celebration allows you to enjoy time with your loved ones without it taking over your entire day.
Alternatively, you might choose to extend the celebration with a small sit-down meal or afternoon tea. At Tree Top Escape, we have many options to make this moment special.
Say Your Goodbyes
After the toast and some mingling, it's time to bid farewell to your guests. Let them know how much you appreciate them being part of your day. This is your opportunity to transition from the shared part of the day to the private, just-the-two-of-you celebration you've envisioned.
Enjoy the Rest of Your Day
With your guests on their way, you can now focus entirely on each other. Whether you choose a quiet dinner overlooking the treetops, a romantic stroll by the lake, or a mini adventure, the rest of the day is yours to enjoy as newlyweds. This private time allows you to soak in the joy of being married and create unforgettable memories together.
Inviting guests to your intimate wedding doesn't mean compromising on your dream day. By sharing a meaningful ceremony, taking beautiful photos, and celebrating with a brief toast, you can include your loved ones without losing the intimacy and personal touch that makes your wedding uniquely yours. Enjoy the best of both worlds and cherish every moment of your special day.
At Tree Top Escape, we specialise in intimate weddings whether it's just the two of you or a small celebration with up to 14 of your nearest and dearest. Whatever you decide, create your wedding, your way.
