Slow Weddings

A slow wedding is rooted in intentionality - to take their time, be fully present, and intentionally experience every part of it. It's not about doing less. It’s about doing things with care.

Why It Resonates

  • Less stress, more connections
    You give yourself space to breathe and be present. It’s not just about greeting everyone—it’s about spending real, quality time with them.

  • Freedom to design a day that feels like you
    From skipping the gatecrash to choosing a weekday morning solemnisation, slow weddings make room for details that reflect you, not just what’s expected.

Ideas

  • Unstack your schedule
    Let go or shorten some things that don’t resonate with you (eg. gatecrashing, photoshoots).

  • Reduce travel
    Lessen the amount of places you feel compelled to visit and reduce car rides.

  • Smaller guest list
    A smaller gathering means more meaningful interactions and less logistical overwhelm.

  • Choosing vendors
    Work with people who respect your intention to slow down.
