Here are all the tips and recommendations you need to plan your intimate wedding in Vermont! Small weddings or "micro-weddings" have been a popular way of celebrating marriage since 2020 and have risen in popularity ever since!



The benefits of a small wedding venue:


Choosing a venue is the first step most couples take when planning their wedding. With intimate weddings rising in popularity it's important to find a venue that feels most like "you". Choosing your venue will also depend heavily on how many guests you will be inviting!


No stress: Having a smaller wedding with a smaller guest count will definitely limit stress on many levels.

Bigger budget: Choosing a smaller wedding venue will allow you to splurge on things like your photographer, florist and other vendors!

Spending more time: During your wedding at your smaller venue you will be able to spend more time with your guests as it will be a more intimate space.
