Micro Weddings in New Mexico

While big weddings are not going away, micro weddings are here to stay, and it seems many couples are starting the new year by hosting small yet lovely weddings!

A micro wedding has family and friends getting together in an intimate environment; which is the focal point for the event. It holds true to traditional values with a modern twist. The beauty of micro weddings is that they are simple. Instead of inviting everyone you know, couples narrow it down to their family and closest friends.

What are the reasons for this? !

Fewer Funds Needed

Planning a micro wedding can sometimes be budget friendly for couples who are on a budget, depending on your vision. Traditional weddings mean big bucks, while micro weddings are more personal and you as a couple have more funds to cover costs for quality over quantity.

• Less Stressful

Couples opt for intimate weddings because attending or hosting events with large groups can be pretty overwhelming. They also fear the potential stress of getting married in front of many people. The stress can even compel some couples to elope because the idea of hosting a huge wedding is too much for them! Some couples wished they had a more intimate wedding, after celebrating an extravagant wedding and not remembering much about their day. One reason is that they were overwhelmed by the sheer number of guests and tending to so many people, etc.

• Becoming More Popular

Some couples want every part of their wedding to be grand, but the budget won’t cover that; they thus opt for a big engagement party or bridal shower. After the pandemic some have chosen to celebrate their love with people who mean the world to them and choosing a micro wedding with those few special people. In 2022 we’ll probably see some couples planning micro weddings for many reasons. Whether you’re choosing to planning a small or a big wedding, New Mexico Wedding Guide and Expos are more than ready to help you!
