Once you\u2019ve given the green light to a micro-wedding, use the following 14 tips to create a smaller scale celebration \u2014 without losing any of the magic of your special occasion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Find the Right Wedding Venue<\/h2>\n\n\n\n A major advantage of a micro-wedding is the abundance of venues available. While large weddings are limited to event spaces that can accommodate a big group, couples planning intimate nuptials usually have their pick of everything from a boutique restaurant, an art gallery, or the top of an iconic structure to an intimate beach, a sunset cruise, or a secret garden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are few limits to where you can say “I do.” As many aspects of wedding planning depend on the venue, find the right one before moving on to the following tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Consider a Destination Wedding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n As a micro-wedding can significantly lower your costs, you may find that your budget allows for a destination wedding. If this is something you\u2019ve dreamed of, start looking into how to make it happen. As an added bonus, it\u2019s a lot easier to get 50 or fewer people to a far-off location than 150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Only Invite Your Closest Friends and Family<\/h2>\n\n\n\n One of the trickiest, but most important, aspects of a micro-wedding is only inviting the special people you and your fianc\u00e9 can’t forgo. Create the invite list together, and be as discerning as possible with who makes the cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Reconsider Allowing Plus Ones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n If your invite list is pushing 50, without accounting for plus ones, you can make them a no-go. It’s likely many of your guests will know each other, so you probably won\u2019t get much flack for the decision. Even if you do, remember it\u2019s your wedding. You have every right to say “No” to someone you barely know arriving on the arm of Cousin Anna or Uncle Bob.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Find the Right Officiant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n While it\u2019s always good to find an officiant that resonates with you, it\u2019s especially important for a small wedding as it\u2019s such an intimate affair. You can either hire a professional officiant from the area where you\u2019ll wed, or ask a loved one who has a way with words to officiate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Decide If You Want a Wedding Party<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Some couples choose to not have a wedding party during their micro-wedding, as the guest count is already so low. Alternatively, you and your partner could have one special friend or family member beside you as you say “I do.” At the end of the day, the size of your wedding party is up to you, regardless of the guest count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. Get Creative with Wedding Elements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Fewer wedding guests usually mean more space for quality and creativity. A small guest list can result in a more unique venue, foodie-friendly meals, custom cocktails, involved games, elaborate decorations, and anything else you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. Embrace the Services of a Wedding Planner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n While it seems like wedding planning for a micro-wedding is easy, there are still elements you may forget or find overwhelming. Enter a wedding planner. This wedding pro can ensure every detail is considered and dissolve a significant amount of your stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. Hire a Photographer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Regardless of how understated you want your wedding to be, it\u2019s still a momentous occasion that should be captured by a professional photographer. Take your time searching for the right fit, perusing online portfolios, and calling top candidates to get a feel if your personalities mesh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10. Treat Yourself to an Amazing Wedding Reception<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Just because you\u2019re having a micro-wedding doesn\u2019t mean you should forgo a fabulous reception. Because this type of wedding doesn\u2019t require as many funds for food and drink, you\u2019ll probably have more flexibility when it comes to selecting a venue, entertainment, decor, and fun details you think would enhance the celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
11. Decide If You Want DIY Floral Displays or a Florist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Although trying to create DIY centerpieces and other floral displays for a large wedding can seem like a recipe for disaster, it\u2019s doable for a micro-wedding. If you enjoy getting crafty with flowers and foliage, consider making your own displays. Alternatively, you can always seek out a florist to help you develop a concept that matches your vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
12. Make It Personal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Without an abundance of guests, creating thoughtful touches is more doable. This can include handwritten invitations, calligraphy place cards, arrangements of hand-picked wildflowers, and anything else that piques your interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13. Opt for Your Favorite Sweets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n When you\u2019re not trying to provide dessert for over 100 people, you can forgo the cake and get more creative. For example, if you love homemade cookies, pie, or candy, feel free to follow that urge. Some couples hosting a micro-wedding also choose to have a small cake and a separate table with a variety of sweets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
14. Determine When You Need to Acquire the Marriage License<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Some areas have numerous hoops to jump through before you receive the marriage license. It’s wise to look into the requirements a few months before you tie the knot. This is especially important if you\u2019re hoping to get legally hitched during an international destination wedding.
