What is a Micro Wedding and how is it different from a traditional wedding?
A micro wedding is an intimate wedding celebration with typically 30 guests or fewer. While smaller in scale, it includes all the essential elements of a traditional wedding ceremony and reception, often held during the day. A key benefit is that it allows couples to experience a full wedding day without the larger guest list and associated higher costs.
What is the average cost of a Micro Wedding in Australia?
The cost of a micro wedding in Australia can vary, generally ranging from $6,500 to $15,000 or more, depending on the specific inclusions and the number of guests. Micro weddings offer a fantastic way to celebrate your marriage without the significant expense of a larger traditional wedding. We offer a variety of micro wedding packages designed to suit different budgets and preferences.
Can we still have traditional wedding elements for our Micro Wedding?
Absolutely! You can definitely incorporate all your cherished traditional wedding elements into your micro wedding. Our packages are designed to ensure you have ample time for special moments such as your first dance, cake cutting ceremony, and any other traditions that are important to you.
What are the benefits of choosing a Micro Wedding?
Choosing a micro wedding offers several significant benefits, including:
Significant cost savings: A smaller guest list naturally reduces expenses.
Reduced planning stress: Fewer guests often means simpler logistics and less pressure.
More time to connect: You'll have more quality time to spend with each of your guests.
Greater flexibility: Smaller events can be easier to customize and often allow for more unique venue options.
How far in advance should we plan our Micro Wedding?
We recommend allowing at least one month to plan your micro wedding. This minimum timeframe is necessary to ensure all arrangements, including the lodging of your legal marriage documentation one month prior to your ceremony, can be handled smoothly. However, we recommend contacting us at least 2 months prior, as this will provide you with more flexibility in securing your preferred date and options.
