Shrinking Wedding and Party?

As we continue to plan, the idea of the larger wedding (150 people) that we started with is losing some of its appeal.  As of today, we are exploring the concept of a much smaller event (20 or so people) at a much earlier date (maybe in November of this year). 

If we are completely changing everything about the wedding, can we shrink down the wedding party?  It was already small- 3 on each side, but if the entire wedding has 20 people at it, won't it be a little strange if 8 of 20 are standing?  We are considering just one on each side instead- my sister and his brother. 

I get that it would be a friend-ending move to kick someone out of my wedding party.  I'm not looking at this as kicking someone out, but if thats how people would take it then I absolutely wouldn't do it.
