What is a Micro Wedding?
A trend that has recently taken the wedding industry by storm is Micro-Weddings. If you are unfamiliar with the topic, micro-weddings are smaller, more intimate ceremonies that consist of 45 to 50 guests. The benefit of this type of wedding is that the intimate style allows the focus to be solely on the couple, and it allows for a more unique personalized ceremony. For the minimalist couple who wants a less stressful, more affordable wedding, this is the perfect option for you!
A micro-wedding is different from an elopement, in that an elopement is typically spur of the moment and private, with only the couple, an officiant, and a witness. A micro-wedding consists of immediate family and super-close friends. Typically, there is also still a full ceremony and reception. Some couples choose to go this route because slimming down the guest list, it allows the budget to be used to make the smaller details more extravagant such as place settings, which may be hard to replicate for 300 people. The emphasis is on quality over quality in micro weddings.
A relaxed atmosphere and increased time with guests are a big reason many couples are choosing to go micro for their big day. The smaller the guest list, the more time you are able to spend with your guests during the wedding. The smaller the guest list, the fewer distractions you encounter. Micro weddings allow a couple to focus on just the important parts of their day with the people who are most important to them.
