Did you just get engaged and are super excited to start your wedding planning? A-mazing! There’s nothing more exciting than planning the big day. If you have already started looking into different options, you probably have come across terms like micro weddings. Although Malta is known to celebrate weddings big, micro weddings are slowly making their entry in the Maltese wedding scene. And we’d love to explain to you why and how it probably is exactly the vibe you are looking for.

inflation is real

Not only the housing prices, everything is becoming more expensive. And Malta is not being spared. If you noticed that your groceries have become more expensive, you can imagine that feeding a few hundred people will easily cost you a small fortune. Because of this, more and more couples are opting for smaller and more intimate weddings. Weddings are already expensive, and you’ll probably only do this once. But it doesn’t mean you need to break the bank to make your special day come true.

Less is more

If you don’t like being the center of attention, having 300 people watching you say “‘”I do”, is probably not for you. Inviting less guests lets you be 100% yourself with the people closest to you. Less means more space for you and the love of your life!

Focus on intimacy

While planning your wedding, thoughts like ‘eloping’ might seem like a good idea. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, to the point where you want to make it just between the two of you. Micro weddings are the ultimate golden mean to an intimate ceremony, without having to elope. It gives you more flexibility and space to create a wedding that is all about you and your partner. A small wedding also means you can personalise everything (from decor to keepsakes) to your liking.

less people, more time

After the ceremony, you’ll probably be taking pictures with the family, shake hands and thank all your guests. Although a wedding is a celebration with your loved ones, we tend to forget the wedding is still about the couple, not the guests. A smaller wedding gives you more time to focus on the two of you. Take that moment for yourselves and take in the fact that… you just got married! Shaking hands can happen after, and less hands to shake, means more time for you two.

a wedding is not a reunion

A wedding is a union between two people. Not a reunion for your college friends and people you haven’t spoken to in the last 5 years. Yes, that sometimes includes family members. If people haven’t been a part of your life for the last few years, it might not necessarily make sense for them to be a part of your wedding.
