A large wedding set in a polished venue is gorgeous, stately, an event with all the friends and family you can think to invite. But it’s not for every couple. An elopement is beautiful, relaxed, privately shared. But– it’s not for every couple. The Micro Wedding is the stunning in-between, offering some of the best parts of both options.

There is an undeniable magic to exchanging vows surrounded by the peaceful beauty of nature. And Micro Weddings, with their focus on intimacy and intention, pair wonderfully with a woodland setting. The gentle rustling of the leaves overhead, the dappled sunlight streaming through the trees, the occasional fluttering of a butterfly passing through; it all sets the stage for a wedding day which feels like you have stepped into the ‘happily ever after’ moment of your own fairytale.

The floral design to this day embraced soft, romantic tones– shades of mauve with blush green, in deep and earthy tones to reflect the lush setting. Roses, hydrangea, airy fern and curled branches lend their delicacy to setting. Clusters of flowers line the aisle, almost as though they had grown there, guiding the couple towards their vows. The altar is draped in flowing white fabric, adding a touch of softness to the earth backdrop. Golden candelabras bring a gentle touch of warm, old-world glow.

With a smaller wedding, every detail becomes more meaningful. Instead of filling a space with tables and dozens of chairs, the focus shifts to creating an experience for yourselves and those closest to you. imagine gathering with loved ones in a serene forest clearing, the sounds of birdsong mixing with laughter, heartfelt words, and clinking glasses as you celebrate together.

Wondering if a woodland Micro Wedding might be perfect for you? Here are a few reasons to guide your decision:

• Intimacy. You will be surrounded by only your dearest selected few, making your day feel more relaxed and genuine.
• Natural Beauty. The setting itself becomes a show-stopping element, tucking you away from the world, needing only your intentionally chosen additions to make it feel magically yours.
• Budget Flexibility. With fewer guests and the lack of a venue cost, you can invest more in the details and vendors most important to you.
• Storybook Romance. A forest backdrop brings in a sense of enchantment which is hard to replicate in even the most beautiful indoor venue.

If you have ever dreamed of a fairytale wedding which feels intentional, romantic, and deeply personal, I would love to help bring your vision to life through flowers that feel like a natural extension of your love story. Let’s create something unforgettable together.
