One of the first decisions in wedding planning is the scale of the celebration. Do you envision an intimate gathering, a modest but lively event, or a grand affair with everyone you know? Understanding the differences between micro, small, and big weddings can help you choose the format that best reflects your values, budget, and vision for the day.
Micro weddings (typically 10–30 guests)
- Atmosphere: Intimate, personal, and highly customisable.
- Focus: Quality time with your closest circle — every guest is deeply significant.
- Budget: Often lower overall, but couples may invest more per guest (fine dining, luxury details).
- Why choose it: Ideal for those who value meaningful connection over spectacle and want intentional experiences.
Small weddings (around 30–80 guests)
- Atmosphere: Balanced — intimate enough to feel personal, lively enough to create energy.
- Focus: A mix of family, close friends, and a few wider connections.
- Budget: Flexible — can scale up or down depending on venue, styling, and entertainment.
- Why choose it: Offers the best of both worlds: closeness without excluding too many people and celebration without overwhelming logistics.
Big weddings (100+ guests)
- Atmosphere: Grand, festive, and often traditional.
- Focus: A wide guest list — extended family, friends, colleagues, and community.
- Budget: Typically the highest, with significant costs for venue, catering, and coordination.
- Why choose it: Perfect for once‑in‑a‑lifetime celebrations, big party atmospheres, or cultural traditions calling for large gatherings.
How to choose what’s right for you
- Priorities: Decide whether intimacy, balance, or grandeur matters most.
- Budget: Allocate where it counts — venue, food, photography, or guest experience.
- Logistics: Consider planning complexity, time, and support needed.
- Values: Align the day’s feel with your story — intentional, meaningful, and true to you.
