Your personality and individuality will be able to come out more and it will make your wedding more meaningful by being more representational of the bride and groom. I do agree that cutting out the “fluff” focuses on the true importance of sharing a wonderful day with family and friends. Being budget conscious makes you be more creative in your wedding planning.

Telling people they are not invited can be a difficult thing. Using the recession as an "excuse" is one way to deal with people whose feelings would be hurt otherwise. Tonya, great point!

What's truly important to them, and lose all the fluff. It makes for an authentic experience for guests as well.

I was going to have a small wedding anyway, but this really gives a girl an excuse to say "sorry, we have to cut down" and no one thinks a thing about it. You might even get a cluck or two of sympathy! I think the recession is a great excuse (even if it’s not true for a bride personally) to downsize her wedding and save some stress and money.
