I wrote about the benefits of having a mixed-gender wedding party, but would you consider going without a wedding party altogether for your wedding? This is something I wish I would have forgone with my own wedding. Initially, the idea of not having a wedding party can feel so uncomfortable! Isn't a beautiful and large wedding party part of the ideal wedding experience?!

Raise your hand if you've been told it is "bad luck" for the groom to see the bride before the ceremony. You spend months planning a day together and are expected to have zero communication in the intimate moments leading up to the altar. For some people, that can be incredibly anxiety-inducing. For many couples, future spouses are our place of calm and comfort. They are one of the only people not bringing more chaos than calmness.

The definition of a micro wedding is a wedding celebration of fifty people or less. Great! This sounds awesome. Now, what does this type of planning does this wedding entail? What considerations and aspects need to be thought about and discussed?
