Just because they’re smaller doesn’t make them any less special!

What Are Micro Weddings?

Recently, the term “micro weddings’ has been popping up everywhere and you might be wondering what this means. Well, we’re here to tell you all about it. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, people are not feeling as safe to have their grand and large, extravagant weddings that they had planned initially. Instead, they are planning micro weddings, which are weddings that consist of a shorter guest list that can include up to 20 guests. Now, don’t think that this is going to make your wedding boring or not as special as you had hoped. This is the safest option right now when planning an event and minimizing the risk of spreading the Covid-19 virus. This is the best way to wedding plan right now as it will keep you and your loved ones safe while enjoying the happiest day of your life instead of worrying about a crowd of people that are clearly not practicing social distancing. This type of wedding can also be more intimate as you will be more selective when choosing who to fill in the limited amount of guests that may attend. You will be surrounded by your closest family and friends and not some random strangers or extended family that you have never met before! Here are some guidelines for planning your micro wedding!

Choosing Your Guests

Now, this is a significant step in planning a micro wedding. You want to make sure that you are carefully going through your list of wedding guest candidates and decide if you really would want them to spend this special day with you. For the people that you don’t really know but feel obligated to invite, don’t waste a good spot to attend your special day on someone who you barely know! Invite your closest friends and family that you know mean the world to you and absolutely have to see you on the happiest day of your life. Make sure to include your significant other’s detailed list of people! We know it may be stressful choosing a limited amount of people to attend the wedding but remember to equally distribute the guests between yourself and the person you are sharing this day with. 

Financing

Another advantage of having a micro wedding is how cheap it is! You will be saving yourself so much money by not having as many guests. There will not be as many costs for catering, seating, or venue space. You will only have to pay for a limited amount of meals and seating. Since there are fewer people you can also find a cheaper venue that is luxurious and fulfills your standards for your dream wedding. You can even take advantage of decorating your backyard as a backyard wedding is trending right now as you can see on TikTok! There are so many ways for you to save money on a micro wedding but still have the luxurious quality with a small number of people that you love and care for.

Enjoy Your Time With Each Guest!

Instead of being stressed about meeting every single guest at a large wedding, you can relax and spend enough time with each of your guests at a micro wedding. This will allow you to feel more connected to everyone that is sharing this memorable day with you and you will feel happier to have gotten to speak with everyone that has attended. It is also a good idea to have a wedding registry for a micro wedding especially since you will get to speak with each individual guest who is sure to ask what you and your significant other are in need of! 

We hope that you see the advantages of a micro wedding and how safe they can be! You don’t want to spend your wedding day concerned about your guests and the spread of the Covid-19 virus. Instead, enjoy the intimate time you will be spending with your loved ones!
