What Is A Micro Wedding?

A micro wedding is an event that encompasses all the elements of a traditional wedding ceremony but on a smaller scale. 

It is ideal for couples looking for an intimate affair with a limited amount of guests, limited planning and a limited budget. 

Micro weddings include a photographer, cake, décor, and stunning venues. 

It is an event designed for couples who want the affordability and simplicity of a small intimate wedding, combined with a traditional, yet still wonderfully coordinated experience. 

In short, a micro wedding features many time-honoured traditions that make a traditional wedding, but toned down a tad.

Start off By Setting Your Budget

Setting up a budget for your wedding is by no means a fun task but it is a critical one. 

It’s the first step to planning your wedding and sets the rest of your plans in motion. Don’t go setting your heart on a dress, venue, caterer etc and then realise it’s totally out of your range. With our micro weddings, you can enjoy all the trimmings of a traditional wedding but on a limited budget.
