I prefer larger tyres but mainly because I go off road with them. I noticed the weight when first changing but can't remember it now as I am just used to them.
Some of the lightest very puncture resistant tyres are Ribmo's and the 28s come up big as they are really 28 (the 35s are huge compared to other 35s)
A 32 will probably not fit through a brake caliper unless you have a release mechanism on caliper and hood/lever.
You're gearing will also slightly increase so they may feel a bit harder work because of that too.
