Unveiling the Truth about Micro Weddings

Hello there, my beautiful engaged couples!

First of all, congrats on your engagement! Whether you’re newly engaged or have been planning your big day for months now, this is a time to celebrate! Now that you’ve found your soulmate, it is time to plan your celebration as fast as your significant other slipped that ring on your finger… right?

Planning a wedding is a huge undertaking on its own. Months and months of decision making as well as the huge bank-roll needed has many couples questioning whether or not the stress and financial toll is worth it. According to TheKnot, the average wedding cost is approximately $33,000.

Yes, you heard that right. THIRTY THREE THOUSAND BIG ONES. My bank account is already crying. I know my vows say for richer, for poorer, but…

That amount might seem reasonable if it can deliver the wedding of your dreams right? Maybe not. Many brides and grooms are questioning that very notion and have decided to seek out another way to plan their special day on a more intimate scale.

Micro Weddings have entered the chat.

What is a Micro Wedding?

Micro wedding is categorized as an intimate affair with typically 50 guests or less but still honors those timely traditions we all know and love. This means you don’t have to skimp on the details like finding your perfect venue, choosing a delicious cake, a photographer to capture your romantic memories, and a decor/setting that matches your style. This type of wedding celebration strips away the stress of planning off your shoulders due to its inexpensive allure and more simplistic timeline.
