Here is a typical timeline for the Micro Wedding.

 Once you arrive, you’ll take your clothing and go to the bridal suite of rooms.  We have a large dressing room that I’ll show you when you visit.  It has a balcony in front which is an awesome place for photos.  There is a make-up room with a glamour mirror.  There are also two bathrooms and a playroom upstairs so you have lots of room to spread out.

While you’re getting ready, your partner will be getting dressed in their dressing area downstairs.  There is a large screen TV or they can relax on the veranda while you finish getting ready.

Before the wedding, your photographer will typically capture special moments like you getting into your dress. If we provide your photography, we’ll take care of managing that service for you.

Shortly before the ceremony starts, we will start the prelude music. You will have chosen all your music in the planning stages. We will play your choices for your ceremony and reception.  Guests enter and are seated. 

After the ceremony, you’d typically have photos with everyone. Some couples choose to have a cocktail hour after the ceremony; some prefer to skip that with a smaller wedding. When we talk with you before you book your wedding, we can decide what will work best for you. Then, we can make a plan.

After photos, you’ll enter your reception and have your first dance. Some couples also choose to have a father/daughter, mother/son, or other formal dances.

Most couples will order catering which is typically served after you enter the reception. You cut your cake and the rest of the time is spent socializing and dancing if you have dance music.  Some couples add on outdoor games, the fire pit, and a send-off to bubbles or sparklers.
