What Is a Micro-Wedding?

A micro-wedding is an intentionally small wedding celebration, typically with 10–50 guests. It blends the intimacy of an elopement with the structure of a traditional wedding—complete with a ceremony, dinner, and even a small reception.

Why couples love micro-weddings:

  • More quality time with each guest

  • Lower costs for catering, rentals, and décor

  • Easier planning process

  • Greater flexibility with venues and vendors

Why Orlando Is Perfect for Micro-Weddings

Orlando isn’t just about theme parks—it's also home to beautiful wedding venues, charming  and stylish urban spaces. Couples love planning small weddings in Orlando because of:

How to Plan a Beautiful Micro-Wedding in Orlando

1. Choose a Micro-Wedding-Friendly Venue

Look for a venue that offers custom packages for smaller guest counts. Avoid paying for a space too large for your group. Our venue offers options for an indoor ceremonies and reception that can seat up to 100 guests, which has the space ideal for micro-weddings.

2. Focus on Personal Details

With fewer guests, you can invest in meaningful details like:

  • Handwritten notes at each place setting

  • A personalized playlist or live music

  • Custom cocktails or a themed dessert bar

3. Host a Flexible Ceremony & Dinner Format

Instead of a full-blown reception, many micro-wedding couples opt for a beautiful ceremony followed by a private dinner or cocktail-style reception. It’s intimate, elegant, and relaxed.

We proudly partner with some of the best Orlando-based caterers to ensure quality and affordability.
