Micro-Weddings with a Macro Impact.

Micro-Weddings with a Macro Impact.

Micro-weddings are on the rise … smaller, more intimate celebrations that don’t compromise on style or impact. With guest lists typically under 50 people, it means these weddings can focus on the details that truly make the day special. Here’s some ideas on how to create micro-wedding with macro impact! 


Personalised Invitations and Announcements: Setting the Scene

Your wedding invitations are the first peek guests get into your big day, so make them stand out! Think about working with a local designer to craft custom invitations that match the wedding theme or your personal style.


If you’re looking to do something a little different then video invitations are a great option. Imagine sending a short, slick little video that tells your story and invites guests to be part of your day. A definite WOW!


Choosing the Perfect Venue: Small Space, Big Impact

One of the perks of a micro-wedding is being able to choose from a much bigger range of venues. Smaller guest lists open up options like boutique hotels, private estates, or even your own backyard. These venues can then be intricately styled to truly bring your wedding vision to life.


Guest Experiences: Making Every Moment Count

With a smaller guest list, you can focus on creating a more personalised experience. Instead of typical seating arrangements, think about long banquet tables or lounge-style seating. Personalised place cards with a note for each guest can also add a really thoughtful touch - much more do-able with smaller guest numbers.


Entertainment is another area where you can get creative. With fewer guests, you can explore options like live acoustic music during dinner, or interactive activities like a wine or whiskey tasting. A guaranteed hit! 


Dining Options: Quality Over Quantity

With fewer mouths to feed, you can invest in higher-quality ingredients and a more elaborate presentation. You could look at a multi-course tasting menu or even just go full-on michelin style!


Another great and do-able option for micro-weddings is Interactive dining experiences, like chef-led stations or a build-your-own dessert bar.They not only offer yummy food but also provide a fun and engaging experience for your guests.


Photography and Videography: Capturing the Day

In a micro-wedding, it’s all about capturing the moments that matter. With a smaller group, photographers and videographers can focus on candid shots that tell the story of the day as it unfolds. This approach often results in a more authentic representation of your wedding, with images that feel spontaneous rather than staged.


Look for pro’s who specialise in documentary-style coverage. They’ll know how to capture all the nuances of a small wedding, from the big moments to the little details that might otherwise go unnoticed.


And as a keepsake for you and your guests, you could create a photo book or video that tells the story of the day.


Final Touches: Memorable Favours and Thank-You’s!

In a micro-wedding, the little things can leave a lasting impression. Instead of generic favours, you could look at  custom-made items or a donation to a charity that’s important to you both.


Thank-you notes are another opportunity to add a personal touch. Rather than a generic message, take the time to write something specific to each guest. It’s a small gesture that goes a long way in making people feel appreciated.


Micro-weddings are perfect for creating a celebration that’s both intimate and impactful. Create a day that’s truly your own, leaving your guests with lasting memories of a well-crafted celebration!


Happy couple
