Finding the Perfect Venue for Your Micro Wedding

When a large, traditional wedding just is not something you can afford or even want, a micro wedding is the best alternative aside from elopement. Not all brides dream of a huge, elaborate wedding, but a small intimate wedding with family and close friends.

An intimate celebration with a stunning backdrop will leave a lasting impression on your guests and is easy on your pocketbook. Just like a full traditional wedding, a micro wedding can be elegant, fun, and memorable. We have affordable, one-of-a-kind wedding venues ranging from cozy cottages with private backyards to art deco lofts. It's easy to find the perfect place that is within your budget.

A small ceremony does not have to equate to cheap and corny, create a breathtaking micro wedding that will leave your guests in awe. The Giggster app is the place to start your search with 10000 handpicked for your big day.

• Intimate gatherings create a sense of closeness and family. A small wedding in an urban oasis will give your guests a relaxing and fun experience.

• Micro weddings allow for intimate celebrations. Follow a family dinner with a trip to a tasting room for a one-of-a-kind wedding experience for your guests.

• Smaller celebrations are easier on your wallet and allow you to spend more one-on-one time with your guests. Your ceremony will be beautiful in any setting with your loved ones surrounding you. Reserve a restaurant for the reception to save money.

• Normally, two spaces can be pricey. But when holding micro weddings, you do not need huge event spaces. Small wedding venues are cheaper and allow you to be creative for your reception. Visit a wine cellar or host a family dinner in the country; the possibilities are endless.

Charming Cottages – Intimate Settings. What better place for an intimate wedding than a garden wedding venue with a charming cottage? Micro weddings were made for intimate backyard settings with indoor and outdoor spaces. Exchange your vows under a trellis and enjoy a homey reception all in one location.

Rooftop Terraces – Modern Settings. Plan a summer micro wedding and take it to new heights by booking a rooftop terrace. These outdoor spaces are the perfect venue for intimate weddings. Decorations can be kept to a minimum while you let the stunning views create an ambiance your guests will love. With the sprawling city as your backdrop, your photos and videos will be stunning.

Country Chapel – Idyllic Settings. When you still want a traditional venue but with an intimate feel, a country chapel is just the ticket.

This intimate wedding venue is ideal for couples looking to embrace tradition on a smaller scale.

Essentials for a Micro Wedding Location

Don't settle for the county courthouse or your plain backyard for your micro wedding. Check out the best micro wedding venues on Giggster and plan an out-of-this-world event at a property that steals the show. Before picking the venue for your wedding, there are many things you want to keep in mind, and we are here to help ensure your closest family and friends love the space as much as you do.

Does the venue offer all-inclusive wedding packages? When picking a small wedding venue, finding one that offers all-inclusive packages is a terrific way to save money and ensure all the small details are taken care of. From flowers to table and chair rentals to clean-up, every detail is covered.

Do you want indoor and outdoor spaces? Depending on where you live and the time of year, having a wedding that is both indoors and outdoors can be fun. Hosting the ceremony in the gardens filled with natural light and then moving indoors for the reception is ideal when the weather cooperates. Catering companies will thank you for serving the food indoors. Nature lovers will want to explore this option.

How many guests are invited to your micro wedding? Generally, micro weddings have up to 50 guests, but if you are only planning on a handful of loved ones to celebrate the big day with you, a reception at a restaurant may be more cost-effective rather than hosting a big party after the ceremony.

Planning Your Micro Wedding

Fewer guests should translate to lower-cost weddings. Sometimes, brides can get carried away and blow the budget, but with a little planning, your micro wedding will be a smashing success. Like traditional weddings, intimate weddings have their share of challenges. To help you prepare, we've come up with a few steps to get you on the right track.

Scout Micro Wedding Venues – Begin your search by exploring Giggster's 10000 handpicked micro wedding venues. You will find a diverse list of possible venues, including art galleries, lofts, rooftop terraces, and gardens.

Contact Vendors – Contract with several vendors to create your dream wedding. If your event space does not offer all-inclusive wedding packages look to experienced professionals for assistance. Assembling a team of vendors to ensure the day is a success is an important step in the planning process.

Plan the Menu – Whether you choose a catering service or are planning to use a restaurant for the reception, menus will need to be planned. A great option is to choose the couple's favorite restaurant for the reception meal.

Secure Permits – Even though you are hosting a small event compared to most traditional weddings, permits may still be required. Check with the event site to see what is required. Most permits do cost a small fee; be sure to budget those into your overall expenses.

Micro Wedding Hidden Costs

Even small events have had their budgets shredded when hidden costs pop up. Renting a venue that is on budget and offers extra features to ensure you stay on track with finances is one way to help keep things in check. Micro wedding venues start at just $19/hour on Giggster, but let's check out some of the other hidden costs to keep in mind.

Does your budget include fees and gratuities?

Permit fees may be small but can add up, especially if you did not plan for them. Include these fees when setting your budget. Gratuities are implied with almost any service rendered; however, most people do not think about them until it is time to pay the piper. When signing contracts with vendors, include the gratuity amount if possible.

Do guests have to pay for parking?

Some venues located in the city will have metered parking or pay-to-park lots for your guests. Couples will need to decide if they are going to cover those parking fees for their guests or if it will be their guests' responsibility to cover those fees.

Are there extra rental fees?

Finding the perfect spot does not always translate into the most cost effective place for your ceremony. Some venues charge extra rental fees for tables, chairs, linens, and other small items. Be sure to ask what is included in the rental fee for the space you have chosen for your wedding.
