This also happened to me. GUI install, Erase all with encryption selected. With a 250GB SSD and 12GB memory the installer gave me a 1GB swap partition and 249GB root partition.

Workaround:

I initially tried to resize the partitions manually after installation but this proved tricky ( see this page if you want to try: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions )

Far easier was to simply add a swap file to the root partition: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-add-swap-space-on-ubuntu-16-04
