Customized packages are meant for micro/intimate weddings, and elopements. Intimate weddings I consider to be under 50 people in attendance and at least three hours of coverage time, preferably 4 to be able to photograph the day well. Elopements typically involve The couple, and a witness, occasionally immediate family and can vary on coverage needs.
