We always heard that micro wedding, elopement wedding? Are they the same, or are there any difference?
Couples around the world are changing their wedding plans. With more couples looking to plan an intimate wedding day experience.
A micro wedding is a smaller version of a traditional wedding with no more than 40 guests. The wedding ceremony and reception of a micro wedding are also much smaller, intimate, and less extravagant than a traditional wedding.
However, micro weddings follow more of a traditional structure of a big wedding, but with fewer restrictions. An elopement doesn’t have to follow any traditional wedding structure and has virtually no restrictions.
A micro wedding allows you to have all the trimmings of a traditional wedding, without the big guest number attached to you. You can still do all the traditions you love, including having a loved one walk you down the aisle, cake cutting ceremony or even a garter toss if you’re into that type of thing!
Planning a micro wedding is the perfect way to include your closest friends and family AND still have an intimate experience together. Then should you plan a micro wedding?
If you want an intimate experience and if you’re looking to save money, then a micro wedding is definitely the way to go.
Micro weddings vary greatly in price from $2,000 to $15,000., too. Costs of micro wedding depends on what the couple wishes to do.
Planning a micro wedding can be as simple or as complex as you would like it to be. The biggest things you’ll want to factor in your budget are your venue, vendors, and food.
With a Micro wedding, you're able to truly enjoy your wedding day without any distractions, and you’re able to plan an epic adventure. So How to Plan a Micro Wedding?

Here’s what you should consider when planning a micro wedding:

Beyond the dress or the tux and the corsage or the boutonniere, the prom theme is one of the most important aspects of prom night.
Prom theme has the power to set the vibes for that big night. It influences what attenders will wear, so choose wisely, and adds something a little extra to the ambience. You can go as wild as a safari night or as glamorous as an evening in Hollywood.

15. Garden Party
Flowers—all the flowers! You can dress yourself with maxi prom dresses, or printed prom dresses in any flattering silhouette.
A prom backdrop featuring planets, stars, and galaxies is totally out of this world. Students love their decorations. And I think there is no special rule to dress your yourself, just pick the one flatter your skintone, your body shape, and make you feel comfortable and confidence.
A perfect go-to theme, your masquerade ball should have masks (the non-coronavirus kind for the eyes), chandeliers, feathers, and lanterns to bring that sleek, sophisticated vibe.
