RELATED: HOW TO PLAN A MICRO WEDDING
What does micro mean? When does your regular old wedding count as a “micro” wedding? According to Kristin Reisenauer, owner and main planner at Natural Elegance Events, the dividing line is 75 guests. But she’s also worked on much smaller weddings, including one with just 18 people. MilMag’s own digital editor Allison Garcia is currently planning a wedding with 12 guests. Smaller than that, and you might want to consider an escape.
