My wedding was small, very specially selected and intimate too. Married 21 years now!
We each questioned one person to stand up with us, had a flower girl that had the rings tied to ribbons on the side of her flower petals basket she carried. No other attendants other than ushers to seat guests and someone at the entrance to sign registry.
An thought for a special touch that we extra:
In my bouquet I had a long stemmed rose that I stopped and gave to my mother as I was escorted by my dad to the front of the church - my husband had one in his coat jacket and did the same with his mother as I approached mine. This allowable us to give recognition to these special ladies! Neither of our mothers knew we were going to do this - we told the minister ONLY and when we got near our moms, we took their hands, had them stand, hugged them and presented them with their rose.
To me, a small brilliant grouping for your ceremony makes it very special and less stressful on all caught up.
Congrats and Best Wishes!
Follow your heart- it is YOUR DAY!!!
Small weddings can be so gorgeous because of their simplicity.
Start with a color scheme or tone. Choose a theme–like, New York in the 20s, Broadway, or an English Garden–a theme will help you when choosing decorations, outfits, your hairdo, food/catering details, etc. Once you have a direction, take off!
Talk to the staff at the church where you are getting married. You certainly want to do a instant rehearsal the night before–even if it's just you, the groom, and the wedding party. You don't have to do a huge dinner afterwards, especially if you do it mid-afternoon, but it's vital to know where everyone needs to stand and what will take place. The staff will arrange that for you, and also may have some fantastic thoughts for the huge day itself!
heres a touch that ever girl wants in her wedding. weather is a white dress or that church. For me it was horse and carriage.
I would choose a colour that u like and would look excellent on bridemaid to. Then u can choose your flowers based on the colour or vice versa. You can alsopick the clour of the season.
As for websites just type in yahoo or google Wedding thoughts and loads comes up. I live downunder so i always try to find websites closer to me. heres one that i liked!

I based my theme around it. I got all these ancient horse shoes and cleaned them up painted them gold and had them up nad down the ilse with white ribbon in bows and for my centre piece; i got someone to weld together the horse shoes to fit arounda a glass bowl and place candles in the middle.
Go for the dress you've always wanted and add one special touch (like a horse-drawn carriage). That will help you find the balance of the fairy-tale and the simple.
Try to be careful with themes - they can come off as cheesy. A theme should be somthing subtle that ties everything together, but not make it look to immature.
