Choosing a small wedding is not a compromise.
Micro weddings are a fully valid, intentional choice for couples who value presence, connection, and experience over scale. When done well, they offer something many traditional weddings don’t: time with the people who matter most, a setting that feels personal, and a day that actually feels like you’re in it.
microWED exists to affirm that choice — clearly, confidently, and without apology.
The wedding industry is largely built around big guest lists, big venues, and traditional formats. Couples planning smaller, more intimate weddings are often left navigating spaces, vendors, and advice that weren’t designed with them in mind.
As a result, planning a micro wedding can feel harder than it should — not because the format is lacking, but because the support is.
microWED was created to change that.
Founded by a couple who planned a micro wedding themselves, microWED is built on firsthand experience and a simple belief: intimate weddings deserve the same clarity, care, and respect as celebrations of any size.
microWED is an editorial wedding brand focused exclusively on intentional micro weddings and elopements.
We curate and create content designed specifically for celebrations with smaller guest counts, including:
Everything we share is evaluated through an experience-first lens — not trends, not spectacle, and not volume.
We don’t feature everything that allows micro weddings.
We feature places and people that do micro weddings well.
That means we prioritize:
Our goal isn’t to overwhelm you with options — it’s to help you make confident, informed decisions that align with how you want your wedding to feel.
microWED is for couples who:
Whether your celebration includes 10 guests or 50, takes place at home or somewhere new, microWED is here to support that choice with clarity and respect.
At microWED, you’ll find:
microWED isn’t here to convince you to have a micro wedding.
We’re here to help you do it well.
When we planned our own micro wedding, we knew we wanted something intimate and intentional. What we didn’t expect was how hard it would be to find guidance that didn’t treat that choice as an exception.
microWED exists because we’ve been there — and because we believe planning a small wedding should feel clear, supported, and fully valid from the start.
That belief informs everything we do here, always with your experience at the center.

I didn’t come to the wedding world because I always imagined myself here.
I came to it because when my partner and I planned our own wedding, we realized how little space existed for couples who wanted something smaller — not as a compromise, but as a deliberate choice.
Like many couples, we initially explored a more traditional wedding. But as the planning unfolded, it became clear that the scale, structure, and expectations didn’t reflect who we were. What did resonate was the idea of a smaller, more intentional celebration — one focused on presence, ease, and spending time with the people who mattered most.
What surprised me wasn’t how right that choice felt.
It was how difficult it was to find guidance that treated it as complete and valid.
Even with a clear vision and a calm approach, much of the wedding industry — intentionally or not — is built around a narrow definition of what a wedding should look like. That gap is what stayed with me long after the day itself.
Our wedding ended up being everything we hoped for: intimate, grounded, and deeply reflective of us as a couple. I would make the same choice again without hesitation.
microWED collective grew out of that experience — not to relive it, but to make the path clearer for couples who already know they want something different.
This space exists to affirm micro weddings as a first-choice format and to offer the kind of clarity, guidance, and representation I wish had been easier to find.

Our Mission
microWED’s mission is to help couples feel confident and supported in their choice to plan a micro wedding.
Our Values
Inclusivity
microWED is built to support couples across identities, backgrounds, locations, and budgets. We believe micro weddings take many forms — and all deserve to be represented with care and respect.
Inclusivity for us isn’t a slogan. It shows up in who we feature, how we speak, and the range of experiences we make visible.
Respect
We approach wedding planning as a personal decision, not a performance.
microWED is a shame-free space where couples can explore ideas, budgets, and formats without judgment or pressure — and without being told they’re doing it “wrong.”
Collaboration
microWED is shaped by collaboration — between couples, venues, vendors, and creatives who believe intimate weddings deserve thoughtful attention.
We value partnership over competition and community over volume, and we’re intentional about building relationships that support better experiences for everyone involved.
