Tips to Plan an Extravagant Micro-Wedding Event

Are you looking to say “I do” in the middle of a pandemic? You can still have the extravagant wedding of your dreams.

In the world of pandemic weddings, we are loving the new trend of fancy AF micro-weddings.

The word “micro-wedding” doesn’t mean skimping on the details. If anything, it means having the budget to truly go all out because there’s a smaller guest list.

scroll through to see some of our favorite ways to create a gorgeous, covid-friendly wedding that feels as big as your big day should feel...and not just like a typical family gathering.

Social-distanced seating doesn’t have to feel awkward!

Create an eye-popping social-distanced ceremony using a variety of seating options for each family group.

When you’re choosing seating for less than fifty people, you have much more freedom in options and budget. We love the idea of dispersing different styles of seating to elevate the mix-match style and make a dramatic statement.

Make your tiny celebration BIG with out-of-the-ordinary moments.

Set the party atmosphere by pairing a vendor like Fizzy Truck ATL with a cozy lounge group to take it from glass-of-wine-on-the-back-porch to an exciting and unexpected occasion.

Gather with your closest family and friends around a striking estate table.

If you’re celebrating with a very small number of people (~20), blow your tiny reception out of the water with an extravagant statement piece for a dinner your guests will never forget.

Large floral arrangements and architectural pieces will make your wedding feast feel like a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Micro-wedding doesn’t have to mean micro-experience.

We’ve been inspired by the trend of brides using the same standard-sized budget to really knock a tiny wedding out of the park.

Small celebrations can feel just as big if you use the budget you set for 300 guests to create extraordinary moments that will elevate your gathering and make for some unbelievable photos to look back on for years to come.
