Planning a Small Wedding in Connecticut: Venues & Tips | Rebecca Lynne Photography

More and more couples are choosing small weddings — and honestly, they’re some of the most meaningful and joyful celebrations I get to photograph. Connecticut offers amazing small wedding venues that let you have a stylish, heartfelt day without the overwhelm.

Why Choose a Small Wedding?

  • More time with each guest

  • Less stress (and often less expense)

  • Freedom to splurge on things you truly love (like amazing photography!)

Best Connecticut Small Wedding Venues

  • The Lace Factory (Deep River) — Industrial chic meets riverfront romance

  • The Webb Barn (Wethersfield) — Rustic elegance surrounded by gardens

  • The Inn at Mystic — Coastal charm with ceremony options indoors and out

  • Winvian Farm (Morris) — A luxury countryside retreat for unforgettable intimate weddings

  • Saltwater Farm Vineyard (Stonington) — Vineyard views + modern architecture

Tips for Planning Your Small Connecticut Wedding

  • Focus on Your Guest List: Invite only the people who light you up.

  • Prioritize Experience: Think great food, a relaxed timeline, cozy vibes.

  • Choose Vendors Who Specialize in Intimate Weddings: (I’m a big fan of small wedding days that feel intentional and real!)
