Small Guest Lists, Big Impact
In a post-pandemic world that’s redefining how we gather, one trend has fully captured our hearts: the micro wedding. Once considered a niche alternative, these intimate celebrations have quickly become a beloved choice for couples who value meaning, intention, and elevated experiences over sheer size.
At Deborah Miller Catering & Events, we see micro weddings not as a compromise—but as an opportunity to create something truly special. A moment that’s less about the guest count and more about the heart of it all: love, connection, and an unforgettable experience, beautifully designed and deliciously executed.
What Is a Micro Wedding, Anyway?
A micro wedding typically includes 10 to 50 guests—just your nearest and dearest. It’s more than an elopement, but more intimate than a traditional wedding. And the beauty of it? With fewer people, your resources stretch further. That means more freedom to elevate the details: stunning venues, bespoke menus, immersive design, and those extra touches that make it so you.
Why Couples Are Choosing Micro Weddings
1. More Meaningful Moments
Smaller weddings create space for genuine connection. With fewer guests, couples can actually spend quality time with everyone—no need to rush from table to table. It’s relaxed, intentional, and deeply personal.
2. Elevated Experiences
Micro doesn’t mean minimal. In fact, many of our couples choose to channel their budget into lush florals, luxurious table settings, curated cocktails, and show-stopping food experiences. When you’re feeding 30 guests instead of 130, you can lean into the wow factor without breaking the bank.
3. Less Stress, More Joy
Big weddings can come with big pressure. Micro weddings, on the other hand, tend to feel more manageable and more “you.” They invite a sense of calm into the planning process—and allow you to focus on what matters most: the experience, the love, and the joy of the day.
4. Creative Flexibility
Want to get married in a rooftop greenhouse? A private dining room with a skyline view? A cozy gallery, a Brooklyn loft, a secret garden? The micro scale opens up a world of venue possibilities and creative expression.
