Alleviate some of the stress by concentrating on the most essential details to YOU. A tiny wedding allows you to focus on the smaller, creative components that culminate in creating an amazing AND unforgettable experience that may be difficult to replicate for, say, 200 guests. Instead of having an average wedding with a ton of people, reduce the guest count and make it an occasion they’ll never forget. Let your creativity run wild now that you have a little extra wiggle room in your budget. Since micro weddings are considered less traditional, there are fewer expectations and more flexibility regarding timelines, venues, events, and overall sentiments.
It’s crucial to prioritize being present over striving for perfection. Instead of being on display as the stars of the ceremony, relax and join your guests in celebration. It’s a time to be laid back and savor all the cherished moments being created with your partner, families, and closest friends as they celebrate your union. Instead of being in an anxiety-induced hypnotic state, concentrate on being here and now. Take a minute for yourselves and breathe. Feel the soft white sand squish between your toes as the footprints you create as a newlywed couple foretell the beautiful path you’re creating for your future; your clothes get a little wet as you playfully chase each other in the stunning Caribbean sea; or on the opposite end of the spectrum, you find joy and laughter in smashing a messy slice of cake into each other’s mouths. Whatever the moment brings— savor every minute. Each wedding is unique because every couple is different. Whether it’s a beautiful beach, clifftops, historical landmark, or private venue, it’s about finding the perfect spot that makes you feel most like YOU.
