I don’t have to sit here and explain how Covid-19 has affected us all, because you already know the answer to that. Cancelled weddings, events, concerts, closed businesses, restaurants, stores, hair salons, and so many other service-based businesses. Along with social life. It’s been quite the rollercoaster, but we have to work with what we have. Masks, social distancing, six feet, extra washing of the hands, the whole nine yards. But love is not cancelled, and lovers worldwide have found a way to make it work. Let’s get into it!
There are a few terms that have gained more popularity especially recently. Elopements have always been done, however now are becoming more common. It’s traditionally whisking away with your lover and getting married on top of the mountains, or in an exotic, beautiful place. And it still is! By eloping, it creates a more personalized, intimate experience for the bride and the groom. Not to mention the spectacular photo gallery that they will receive from their photographer. Some venues also offer packages especially for couples who want to elope and they will create this amazing experience for both, it’s pretty amazing and incredible experience.

A ‘Minimony’ is a small ceremony, and when times are more certain/better, or whatever the case may be, the couple will plan a subsequent ceremony, and get married the way they have always dreamed, with as many family and friends as they please. A micro-wedding on the other hand, is a small wedding, up to 50 guests, no subsequent ceremony later, this is it right here! More intimate, Detail-oriented, experience driven ceremony and small party, socially-distanced of course. A simple, yet beautiful evening to enjoy with the very closest, dearest people. A declaration of love and only the most important witnesses.
If you are still unsure on which way to go, here is the link to a quiz that will help you decide which type of wedding best works for you! https://pin.it/2Dkewzu
