Micro-Weddings with Big Style: All-Inclusive Options for Small Celebrations

Over the last few years, micro-weddings have gone from niche to mainstream. Couples are choosing to downsize their guest lists and upscale their experiences—prioritizing meaningful moments, beautiful design, and stress-free planning over massive guest counts and bloated budgets.

At Mirabelle Estate, we specialize in helping couples create intimate celebrations that feel just as magical—and far more personal—than a traditional 150-person wedding. If you're planning a small wedding but still want big style, here’s what you need to know.

What Is a Micro-Wedding?

A micro-wedding typically includes 20 to 50 guests—just your closest friends and family. Unlike an elopement (which usually excludes guests altogether), a micro-wedding still includes a full ceremony and reception—just scaled to fit your priorities.

Think:
✔️ Elegant florals
✔️ A seated dinner
✔️ Toasts, dancing, and photography
✔️ An intentional guest list and a relaxed, joyful atmosphere

Why More Couples Are Choosing Micro-Weddings

Here are the top reasons we see couples shifting to smaller celebrations:

1. Quality Over Quantity

With fewer people to accommodate, couples can spend more on what matters—like elevated décor, gourmet food, and a photographer who captures every little detail.

2. More Time With Each Guest

At a big wedding, you're lucky to say hi to everyone. At a micro-wedding, you get to savor the experience—talking, laughing, and dancing with each person you love.

3. Lower Costs, Higher Impact

By trimming the guest list, couples often save thousands—without sacrificing style. Instead of a buffet for 150, you might opt for luxe table settings and a handcrafted menu.

4. Less Stress, More Flexibility

Smaller weddings are easier to plan given the limited vendor options and logistics. You also have more flexibility with layouts, timelines, and design elements.

How Mirabelle Estate Elevates the Micro-Wedding Experience

We designed our all-inclusive packages to work beautifully for small weddings, giving you the same elegance and service as a larger event—scaled to fit your guest list and budget.

Here’s how we make micro-weddings effortless and elevated:

✔️ Intimate Spaces with Scenic Views

With 19 acres of mountain views, Mirabelle Estate offers the kind of backdrop that doesn’t require much decorating. Our ceremony site and barn reception hall scale beautifully for smaller groups while still feeling full and festive.

✔️ Onsite Accommodations

Get ready, celebrate, and stay overnight in our private onsite house. No rushing to a hotel after the last dance, and no need to pack up décor at midnight.

✔️ Flexible Layouts & Design

Fewer tables? No problem. We help you design a space that feels intentionally intimate—not empty. We’ll adjust floral placements, lighting, and table arrangements to create an atmosphere that feels cozy and elegant.

✔️ Transparent Pricing

Our all-inclusive micro-wedding packages are priced to keep your budget in check without compromising quality. You’ll know exactly what’s included—and exactly what it costs.

Micro-Weddings, Major Memories

A smaller guest list doesn’t mean smaller moments. In fact, we often hear from our couples that their micro-wedding was more memorable, more relaxed, and more emotional than they ever imagined.

Whether you're dreaming of a seated dinner for 30 or a cocktail-style gathering for 40, Mirabelle Estate offers the perfect blend of affordability, style, and ease.
