Smaller does not mean lesser. The Intimate Package is for couples who have decided that the people who matter most to them fit at one table — and that is exactly the celebration they want.

At thirty guests, everyone knows everyone. Conversations run the length of the table and across it. The coordinator knows every guest by name before the day. It is the kind of wedding that takes very little effort to make feel exceptional.
