For youIntimate weddings

Sound familiar?

Common friction for intimate weddings.

  • Family pressure to expand the list after “intimate” was agreed
  • Spreadsheets that feel oversized for 40–80 guests
  • Missing legal or cultural tasks because the checklist was too thin
  • Seating drama even at small receptions

How to get started

  1. Write the guest rules down

    Agree plus-one and kids policies before invitations go out.

  2. Apply a lean checklist

    Intimate and civil templates keep legal and vendor essentials without bloat.

  3. Protect the budget

    Every added household should show up as a catering line change the same day.

Frequently asked questions

How small is “intimate” for a Filipino wedding?
Often roughly 20–80 guests, but families define it differently. What matters is a shared number both sides respect.
Do we still need ninongs and ninangs?
Many intimate kasals still invite a few sponsors. Keep the set small and intentional — see our ninong/ninang glossary guide.
