The Style Guide Kelly Starr from Amini Concepts is the creative mind behind our blush and gold reception setting. Here she shares her quick tips for styling an intimate wedding. what are some easy ways to add wow factor? Rather than spreading everything out, find one or two key focal points in a space and style those areas. Otherwise you will lose the strength of the look you are trying to achieve. My best advice is don’t overdo it - less is more! what styling idea is perfect for a smaller wedding? One sweet idea is to have the bride and groom sitting at a table with their guests – this embodies the nature of the intimate wedding. Their chairs can be beautifully styled with ‘Mr & Mrs’ signs to suit their theme. how can you make a larger venue feel more intimate? Play with lighting. Don’t feel like you have to turn on all the lights in the reception space you have hired. Instead, you can dim the ceiling lighting and incorporate uplights to lessen the focus on other areas and create ambience and mood.
