The pandemic had a surprising effect on the wedding industry. Covid-19 took a small wedding trend called “micro-weddings” and made it very popular. Many couples are now deciding to have very small intimate ceremonies with 20 guests or less! They bring their close friends and loved ones. These events are perfect for couples that want something small and private!
What is a Micro Wedding?
A micro wedding or an elopement/minimoni is a private ceremony with just the bride and groom. These weddings tend to be more intimate because they are smaller and couples are able to customize them to make them more unique. Vecoma at the Yellow River has an all-inclusive elopement package for couples with few or no guests.
Advantages to a Micro Wedding
There are many advantages to having a Micro Wedding. The most obvious is the price. Micro weddings can be significantly more affordable and leave couples with more money to spend on a honeymoon or new home. Couples that have Micro weddings often save money. Another advantage is that they are easy and fun to plan! When the headcount of an event is twenty people or less, the bride and groom can focus on what is important to them in the planning process.
Is an Elopement right for you?
Couples might decide to have an elopement for many reasons. First and foremost, would be the Covid-19 pandemic. Many Brides and Grooms are having ceremonies where they allow their guests to live stream the event. This is safe for the older guests like the couple’s grandparents, and an easier option for guests who live far away!
Couples also might be attracted to a micro wedding if they were planning on having a destination wedding. Large scale destination weddings can be expensive, but having a micro wedding is a great way to make having a destination wedding more affordable. Micro weddings can also be beautiful and fun to plan.
