jo At One Curious Dream, we’ve seen the rise of micro weddings and we absolutely love them. There’s something incredibly special about hosting an intimate celebration with only your closest family and friends. Our micro wedding planning service is designed to help couples plan these smaller, highly personalised weddings without any of the stress that can come with managing the details themselves. A smaller guest list gives us the freedom to focus on what truly matters — creating a day that feels intentional, personal, and full of thoughtful details. But just because the wedding is smaller doesn’t mean there aren’t lots of moving parts. That’s where our expertise comes in.
Our micro wedding planning service is tailored specifically for couples hosting weddings with around 20 to 40 guests. We know that planning an intimate wedding is not simply a scaled-down version of a big wedding — it’s about creating an experience that feels luxurious, personal, and carefully considered.
We help with everything, from:
Choosing the right venue, whether it’s a private home, a garden, or a boutique estate.
Coordinating catering and drinks experiences that suit a smaller group.
Styling intimate spaces to make a big visual impact with fewer guests.
Managing the logistics — timelines, suppliers, and on-the-day coordination.
We make sure every detail feels seamless so that couples can enjoy the celebration rather than worry about it.
Couples choose our micro wedding planning service for a few key reasons:
Personalisation: With fewer guests, we can focus on creating bespoke details that truly reflect the couple’s personality. From flowers and table styling to ceremony touches, nothing is overlooked.
Budget Management: Smaller weddings often allow couples to invest more in premium elements. We guide couples to make smart choices that maximise impact without overcomplicating the budget.
Stress-Free Planning: Even intimate weddings come with logistics and suppliers. We coordinate everything so couples can relax and enjoy their day.
Creative Freedom: Fewer guests and more flexible spaces mean we can get creative. We love helping couples design unique experiences, from immersive dining setups to personalised entertainment.
One of our favourite micro weddings was a marquee wedding at home in Surrey with just 30 guests. We carefully curated every element, from a stunning floral ceiling installation to bespoke table styling. By coordinating the catering, timelines, and décor, we ensured the day ran effortlessly while reflecting the couple’s personality. Another couple chose the beauty of Howsham Hall in Yorkshire for 30 guests. Using our micro wedding planning service, we handled sourcing the venue, supplier coordination, layout planning, and guest experience details, transforming the private estate into a magical, intimate celebration.
Our process for a micro wedding planning service is simple but thorough:
Initial Consultation: We get to know the couple, their vision, and their priorities.
Budget and Timeline Planning: We create a clear plan that covers everything from start to finish.
Venue and Supplier Coordination: We help select the perfect venue, caterers, florists, and entertainment suitable for an intimate day.
Design and Styling: We tailor décor, stationery, and styling to create a cohesive, impactful experience.
On-the-Day Management: We manage the schedule, suppliers, and guests so the couple can fully enjoy the day. This ensures couples feel supported, informed, and excited throughout the planning journey.
Prioritise Guest Experience: Fewer guests mean you can focus on personalised touches, like curated welcome gifts or tasting menus.
Invest in Quality Over Quantity: Smaller weddings allow for more luxurious choices in décor, flowers, and catering.
Consider Unique Venues: Private homes, country houses, and boutique venues can create unforgettable experiences.
Use Expert Planning: Our micro wedding planning service ensures no detail is overlooked, from logistics to styling.
We love micro weddings because they allow couples to focus on what really matters — their friends, family, and the experience itself. They feel personal, relaxed, and deeply meaningful. And with our support, couples can enjoy every moment, knowing that everything is taken care of behind the scenes.
If you’re planning a small, intimate wedding and want it to feel effortless and extraordinary, our micro wedding planning service can make it happen. Get in touch with One Curious Dream today, and let us help you create a day that’s personal, beautiful, and completely stress-free.
