The Power of the Micro Wedding
According to RealSimple, the average cost of a wedding in the United States in 2019 is $29,200. That’s almost quadruple the cost of a wedding in other countries! While this number has gone down — about $5,000 from 2018 — it’s still a big number to take in. That kind of cash could easily translate into a down payment for a house, four years of community college, or even an epic honeymoon (with money to spare!). More and more couples in 2019 are rejecting the notion of spending such a large amount for one day, and we can’t blame them one bit. Cue the micro wedding: a bite-sized version of the traditional wedding.
The beauty of the microwedding is that it can fit whatever suits your ideal ceremony. Considering a mountaintop ceremony, confessing your love to the vast valley below? Do it! Want to hop over to New York City and say your vows to one another as crowds are bustling past? Done!
