Lehigh Valley Micro-Wedding Inspiration

What if you could have a wedding with the people you love the most—the ones who have supported you from the very beginning? Read on to discover pro tips for creating the perfect micro-wedding experience for you and your guests.

Location

Find a spot that speaks to you, a place that represents your shared journey together—maybe it’s a restaurant you love, a sanctuary nestled in the woods, a rooftop garden or even your own backyard.

Ceremony

While the party is often the highlight of larger receptions, in a micro-wedding, the ceremony takes center stage. Find a celebrant who gets you as a couple, someone who can celebrate your unique story. The words they share unite you and your guests in a powerful and meaningful way.

Florals

Lavish tablescapes, magical ceremony backdrops and the most gorgeous bouquet you ever saw—when your wedding is small, you have the opportunity to make a bold statement with your florals. Hosting a micro-wedding by the water? Consider flowered paddleboards for an end-of-night float down the stream.

Photography, Videography + Livestreaming

You’ll want images and video from this once-in-a-lifetime day that truly capture all of your shared moments. For guests who can’t attend, this imagery is the best way for them to experience your joy and celebrate with you. Some couples even choose to live stream the ceremony itself.

Your Look

There are no rules here. Wear what you love and what makes you feel incredible. Hair and makeup are key to looking polished and pulled together, even if your vibe is casual. Remember, makeup artists know how to enhance your best features for a picture-perfect look!

Details

A smaller wedding gives you the opportunity to create surprising moments of joy and emotion. Consider the idea of writing a letter to each of your guests, letting them know how much you appreciate the role they’ve played in your life. Even playful details like the charming “social-distancing” string telephone spark nostalgia.

The Best Dinner Party You Ever Threw

Create the menu of your dreams. Perhaps it’s cuisines from where you’ve traveled, signature family dishes or just one utterly decadent meal.

A smaller group size means that the chef or caterer you select will have so much more flexibility in what they can prepare. Whatever you serve, be sure your table is glowing with warm candlelight and festooned with beautiful blooms. Adding in gorgeous place settings takes the tablescape to next-level beauty.

And just because your wedding is small doesn’t mean you can’t have wedding cake! Check out the three micro-cakes, perfect for personal portions.
