The pandemic has sparked panic and destroyed far too many things from the last year, including every Indian’s wedding dream of having a big fat Indian wedding in 2021. As unfortunate as this scenario has turned out to be, the silver lining is that couples can still marry with their full enthusiasm, even with a maximum of 25 to 50 guests

Smaller, more intimate wedding ceremonies, prompted by global social guidelines, are unquestionably becoming the new trend from the last year. Smaller gatherings, on the other hand, do not have to sacrifice the grandeur and beauty of your dream Indian wedding with all things you wanted to do. Our curated list of 15+ décor ideas for your intimate pre-wedding and wedding celebrations will inspire you and leave you in awe.

So, what are we waiting for, let’s get started with the list:

A SMALL WHITE WEDDING WILL KEEP YOU TIMELESS

The fabric has a lot of strength, so don't ignore the elegance it provides. Draped ceilings will always give your venue a touch of opulence and glamour. (String lights above the fabric to create a soft glow that completes the rustic look.) Keep it traditional & minimal with white drapes, or go for an avant-garde look with vibrant drape materials.

An easy, no-fuss way to add a beautiful traditional backdrop to your wedding or Haldi is with marigold and jasmine strings to create a wall of lush, green banana leaves. Not only will these leaves give a traditional touch to your event but also provide an eco-friendly look that will definitely be loved by your guests.

When it comes to intimate weddings, we should always tend to the locally available things as they are budget-friendly and easily available. Locally produced and traditionally used flora like mogas and lotus can look as opulent as they come when creatively crafted.

The stars may have written down some of the best wedding décor ideas. Take into account using celestial accents in your wedding reception decorations if you're an astrology person. Table place settings should be shaped like stars and moons, and rich, dreamy colors like navy, silver, gold, and black should be used in centerpieces and accents throughout the room.

Is there some champagne on the table? Please accept my request. Self-serve drinks are a newer wedding decoration concept, but they're a good idea for keeping guests occupied all night. A cocktail wall, like a dessert wall, can be a centerpiece of your wedding venue's decor. It allows guests to grab a drink while socializing rather than having to wait in a long line at a bar.
