But planning a huge wedding ceremony for you and your 150 closest friends and family members can be daunting.

After you choose your venue, you can adjust your guest list to fit their capacity. Think about what you want your wedding reception to look like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also think about the ceremony. Do you want to hold it at the same venue as the reception? Where will you say your wedding vows? Where will your guests sit? With a unique venue, you can have an original ceremony idea without sacrificing style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another benefit of micro weddings is you have more venue options; you can book places you would have never imagined for a huge wedding. With a smaller wedding, it&#8217;s easier to find space for everyone. You can get creative with how you seat people, especially since it&#8217;s an intimate celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Non-Wedding Venues<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Is there a picture-worthy venue with a beautiful outdoor space you&#8217;ve always loved? Do you have a historic family estate that would be perfect for hosting? You can look at parks or galleries in your city, or maybe you&#8217;ve dreamed of an industrial wedding venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since you have a smaller guest count (and a much smaller scale ceremony and reception), you may be able to book a venue that is not traditionally a wedding venue. Maybe they don&#8217;t have the space for a huge wedding but can fit your smaller guest list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Narrow Down Your Guest List<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want a truly intimate ceremony, it&#8217;s okay to leave out your friend who you&#8217;ve haven spoken to for ten years. It&#8217;s all about who means the most to you and who you want to be there with you to celebrate this special moment in your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/how-many-people-should-i-invite-to-my-wedding\/\">intimate guest list<\/a> for both you and your partner is the perfect way to make your wedding memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Decor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoA45SHhlCK\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Make sure you plan for music and a space for everyone to dance and have fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget about the special first dance. You want to make sure there is space for everyone on the dance floor and that there is enough room around it for people to gather as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For music, ask your friends and family if they&#8217;ve recently hired a DJ that they loved.

Doing so allows you to see if their work matches your idea for your wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may also want to look into a videographer for the wedding.

This is totally up to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you only invite 30 or 40 people, there&#8217;s no need for ten bridesmaids. But you still may want to have a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/what-does-a-maid-of-honor-do\/\">maid of honor<\/a> and best man to recognize the special people who have always been there for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get Dressed Up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You still probably want to have the special white dress that makes you feel like a princess. While you don&#8217;t need to fanciest outfits, still put some effort into what you wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll want to look back on the photos and remember how special the moment was, so there&#8217;s no need to skip the perfect wedding dress. Go shopping for something that speaks to you and that you feel proud and confident in. And don&#8217;t forget <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wedding-hairstyles\/\">hair<\/a> and makeup for the special day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can still set a dress code for guests, especially if you are hosting the wedding at a venue that requires a specific dress code. Just because the wedding is smaller doesn&#8217;t mean you have to sacrifice special outfits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Destination Micro Weddings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/destination_micro-wedding-1200x630-1-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uat.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/destination_micro-wedding-1200x630-1-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/uat.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/destination_micro-wedding-1200x630-1-600x315.jpg 600w, https:\/\/uat.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/destination_micro-wedding-1200x630-1-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/uat.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/destination_micro-wedding-1200x630-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/destination-weddings\/\">destination wedding<\/a> is perfect for getting away and celebrating while getting to travel. You can choose venues in the United States or even have an international wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of great places for a destination wedding in the US. Maybe you want a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/the-top-california-wedding-venues\/\">beautiful beach wedding in California<\/a>. Think about a quiet cabin in the woods or lakeside with views of the mountains. Maybe the wedding of your dreams in a pristine wildflower meadow? Saying your vows under a blue sky and framed by a pine forest is an incredible way to get married.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or if you want to travel outside the country, it is easier to do so with a small group. You can combine your wedding ceremony, reception, and honeymoon into one trip that you&#8217;ve always dreamed of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does a Micro Wedding Cost?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average wedding costs around $30,000 or more which is a hefty expense that many couples may not be able to afford outright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with any wedding, the cost of a micro wedding can vary greatly on the specifics of the wedding. A micro wedding may cost anywhere from $5,000 to upwards of $10,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A micro wedding, however, can definitely save you money with a smaller guest list and access to smaller venues. With a micro wedding, most of the money can be put towards the things that really matter to you, instead of catering to over a hundred guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do You Need a Wedding Planner?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterfly.com\/ideas\/wedding-planner-cost\/#:~:text=On%20average%2C%20a%20wedding%20planner,and%20desired%20level%20of%20service.\">Wedding planners<\/a> are so helpful when <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/how-to-plan-a-wedding\/\">planning your wedding<\/a>. They can be a lifesaver in helping you budget and account for everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can still hire a wedding planner for a micro wedding to make sure all the details are perfect and everything goes smoothly. Some wedding planners work hourly which is better for a smaller scale wedding that doesn&#8217;t require as much as a large scale event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Micro Wedding Pros and Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cn7_y8IvzoG\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
