The Wonderful Benefits Of A Small Wedding

The pandemic put the beauty of small weddings in the spotlight as many brave couples were forced to postpone or downsize their weddings. It has been heartbreaking and stressful to witness clients live through this. It has also been inspiring and heartwarming to see love shine through and despite Covid, we documented some beautiful and intimate weddings. Slowly couples realized that there were many benefits to hosting an intimate wedding. Now small weddings are trending. Here are some of the advantages that might make you wonder why a micro wedding wasn’t the plan all along.

 

Quality Time With Guests

You can spend plenty of time with your guests when you have a micro wedding. At a big wedding, you might be lucky to have 10 minutes with each guest, which isn’t time for a meaningful conversation. You also have more time to spend with your new husband or wife since there’s no need to rush around to every table and entertain lots of people. It also gives us, your wedding videographers, time to capture some of the most romantic footage between the couple we can use in your wedding highlights and films.

The more content we capture, the more footage we have to choose from in the editing process to make your films really meaningful, emotional, and timeless.

The Financial Savings

One of the biggest wedding costs is the food and drink. Without that hefty catering bill, you can save the money or invest it into other areas of the wedding or honeymoon. Many couples are giving special guests a more luxurious experience by choosing fancy venues or going all out on flowers, lighting, and decor. Of course, all this gorgeousness has to be documented in your wedding video and we are your experts! Watch some of our latest films!

The Venue Options

A massive benefit of having a small wedding is your venue options become wide open. You can choose from so many venues, from tiny rustic churches to remote mountain tops or intimate settings that are unique like an art gallery for example. As wedding videographers, we get so excited about new venues and Long Island has so many wonderful options for hosting an unforgettable event.

Covid Considerations

If you are planning a small wedding and later Covid restrictions return, you might not have to change your wedding plans. That peace of mind is invaluable. We make it very easy to postpone the wedding to another date, all you have to do is choose a new wedding date, we will update the contract and send it to you for electronic signature. This gives the couple even more time to plan the most perfect wedding.

The Romance

Elopements and small weddings are intimate and romantic. The atmosphere is more personal and with a small wedding, at the ceremony and reception, everyone seems so connected and bonded. You can see it in the wedding videos and also couples are quite relaxed too.
