And the reasoning went beyond simply not wanting to deal with the outlandish opinions of bossy relatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 1000px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\n<div class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 125.08324084350721%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https:\/\/r.curalate.com\/v2\/widget\/XJiM9JcFMQSRM2kRIgk7nmALSeVD3iHN?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"901\" height=\"1127\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"curalate-widget-image\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"https:\/\/edge.curalate.com\/v1\/img\/nvPEXdlHjJkWADqHbixrx01JxOA0TZwkJ58YRS5-Jv0=\/d\/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><i>Click to shop; Image via @sheenaoliveraphotography<\/i><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s a lot of beauty in a small wedding and it certainly shouldn\u2019t go overlooked. This unexpected trend may have changed the way we see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/bridal?subsite=bridal\">weddings<\/a>, but it also introduced a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/whats-new.html\">new<\/a> approach to the old tradition. If you\u2019re newly engaged and still sussing out your options, there are quite a few advantages of a micro wedding to consider.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>1. You Save Money<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s no secret that weddings can get pricey. And the more people that attend your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/bridal?subsite=bridal\">wedding<\/a>, the more expensive the final bill will be. Large weddings call for larger venues, and each guest has a charge for their plate. Factor in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/13_429\/cocktail-dresses.html\">cocktail<\/a> hour, the bar situation, and the transportation to and from the venue&#8211;you get the picture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a small, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brides.com\/story\/how-to-throw-a-microwedding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">intimate wedding<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you\u2019re saving a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ton <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of money. You can book a smaller venue, spend less on everyone\u2019s plates, and even use your own phone for music, since the small crowd doesn\u2019t require a loud DJ. Plus, with all the money you\u2019re saving, you can put it towards those splurge items that you\u2019re dying to have at your wedding. Like your favorite wine or the perfect meal&#8211;or, hello, your dream <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/2042_3502\/wedding-dresses.html?subsite=bridal\">dress<\/a>!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 1000px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\n<div class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 100.0%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https:\/\/r.curalate.com\/v2\/widget\/1kT38ycsnKdVFUhmthmFay17SeG7gjPp?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"curalate-widget-image\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"https:\/\/edge.curalate.com\/v1\/img\/GulSMIweDkiLSv0Hl67gAA0asJygzKMuB_lyUYC3E-E=\/d\/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><i>Click to shop; Image via @toniagodwinn<\/i><\/p>\n<h2>2. A Small Wedding is More Intimate<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A small wedding means that you can truly spend the entire day focusing on what weddings are supposed to be about&#8211;the love that you share between you and your partner. With a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/lifestyle\/backyard-small-wedding\/\">smaller gathering<\/a>, you likely won\u2019t be bogged down by the last-minute things that a large wedding would have. You won\u2019t have to worry about perfecting elaborate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/13_260\/print-and-floral.html\">floral<\/a> arrangements, tracking down your great uncle\u2019s dinner order, or dealing with a last-minute addition to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/2042_2106\/wedding-guest.html?subsite=bridal\">guest<\/a> list (aka your cousin\u2019s girlfriend that he\u2019s been dating for three months).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The intimacy of a small wedding gives you the opportunity to express your love and commitment to your partner in front of your closest friends and family. It allows you to focus on them and them only, and establish a loving and intimate relationship from the very first moment of your marriage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>3. You\u2019ll Have More Venue Options<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fewer people means more options for your venue. Since it will be a smaller crowd, you could host your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/bridal?subsite=bridal\">nuptials<\/a> nearly anywhere without fear of exceeding capacity. A micro wedding also opens up the possibility of more out-of-the-box venues, like your favorite local park, or your best friend\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/lifestyle\/backyard-wedding-ideas\/\">backyard<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 1000px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\n<div class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 125.0%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https:\/\/r.curalate.com\/v2\/widget\/BsRaiGN6cegNkJC5MJtVlUWGyy3D6xn9?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1350\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"curalate-widget-image\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"https:\/\/edge.curalate.com\/v1\/img\/RTcNxrJTOjBLafyl3GJF8CpVUQqvQ_r6gewEmuBofzE=\/d\/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><i>Click to shop; Image via @_khumphet<\/i><\/p>\n<h2>4. You Can Coordinate More Details<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A small gathering of friends and family allows you to coordinate everything, including your guests. It\u2019s becoming more and more popular to ask your guests to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theknot.com\/content\/new-wedding-trends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">coordinate with the wedding colors<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as a result of 2020\u2019s micro weddings. This adds a fun and unique element to your wedding and makes for an incredible photo-worthy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/299\/special-occasion.html\">event<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a small wedding, you can coordinate every single piece of your wedding to your liking. It\u2019s less likely that you\u2019ll have to cut corners because of cost or overlook a few details because of your time constraint. Every corner of your wedding can be filled with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/fashion\/personal-bridal-style\/\">personal touches<\/a> that make it your own special day.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>5. You Can Spend Quality Time With Everyone<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weddings with over 100 people can be tricky when it comes to spending time with everyone. It\u2019s a traditional courtesy to float around to each table during dinner, but sometimes that\u2019s where the contact ends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a micro-wedding, you\u2019ll get the opportunity to have longer, engaging conversations with everyone in attendance. Since you\u2019ve probably spent a lot of time determining the final <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/2042_2106\/wedding-guest.html?subsite=bridal\">guest list<\/a>, everyone at your wedding is someone that is close to your heart. You will love that extra quality time that is spent with them on one of the biggest moments of your life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you having a small wedding or a big affair?
