A micro moment
Weddings in 2021 are having their micro moment. We love the big weddings, don’t get us wrong, but there’s something really special about the intimate style. Surrounding yourself literally with only your nearest & dearest, not having to invite that long-lost cousin.
Once upon a time you would elope in order to have that smaller style wedding with just a select few – but now do the intimate thing a little closer to home!
Being able to adapt in the current climate, means instead of putting off that magical wedding day you have dreamt of for years – why not just rejig it to a more intimate occasion. Because you can’t keep putting life on hold for a pandemic!
What makes the perfect intimate wedding
