The Beauty of a Micro Wedding

Traditionally, they were grand affairs with large guest lists, extravagant decor, and elaborate ceremonies. Today, more and more couples are opting for a more intimate approach to their special day - the micro wedding.

With fewer guests they can actually consider having a luxurious table scape and gourmet dining experience. A smaller guest list means quality over quantity.

Micro weddings open up a world of possibilities when it comes to choosing a venue. Couples can think beyond traditional venues and consider more unique locations from a charming backyard garden, a private estate, art gallery, museum or vineyard the options are limitless.

Let’s not forget about the savings. A smaller guest list also means fewer invitations, food, drinks, cake, favors and champagne.
