Planning to get married

L • 30 🇬🇧

Myself and fiancé will have been together 10 years in 2020 and we have said to celebrate this wed like to get married on our anniversary (which is in July)

I have the bigger family and would love a reception after the ceremony, but my fiancé has said he’d like not to have the reception because he doesn’t deal well with large groups of people (there will be around 50 all together)

What could we do to compromise?

Thanks 😊
