Embrace the Intimacy: The Rising Trend of Micro Weddings
It seems like wedding trends come and go these days and it looks like the micro wedding has emerged as a popular choice for many couples (cozzie livs, right?). But what exactly is a micro wedding, and why is it becoming the preferred option for so many?
What is a micro wedding?
A micro wedding is a small, legals only intimate ceremony typically involving no more than 30 guests. This style of wedding caters to couples who are looking for a more personal and meaningful way to celebrate their union.
Benefits of a micro wedding
By focusing on quality over quantity, micro weddings offer a unique opportunity to create a memorable experience without the stress and financial burden often associated with larger events.
What’s more, micro ceremonies allow couples to prioritise what truly matters to them, whether it's spending quality time with their closest friends and family, or investing in aspects of the wedding that reflect their values and personalities.
One of the primary advantages of a micro wedding is the cost savings. With fewer guests, couples can allocate their budget more efficiently, perhaps opting for a unique venue, or bespoke attire (or the after party). This financial flexibility can also allow for more sustainable choices, aligning with the values of many environmentally conscious couples.
Deeper connections
The intimate nature of a micro wedding fosters a deeper connection between the couple and their guests. The smaller guest list means that everyone present is someone who genuinely matters, creating an atmosphere of warmth and closeness that is often hard to achieve in larger gatherings.
Planning a micro wedding also provides the freedom to be more creative and personal with the ceremony. From handwritten vows to DIY decorations, every detail can be tailored to reflect the couple's love story and shared journey.
Is a micro wedding right for me?
