Size matters. FACT: weddings with small guest counts offer you and your partner the freedom to enjoy a luxurious experience for your wedding without all the stress. At Minimal Matrimony, we believe our couples deserve a wedding celebration devoid of all the trappings that can make large weddings onerous endeavors.  We've taken New Orleans elopement packages to the next level with our luxury micro weddings.

Our mantra is simple: people over things. Micro weddings and mini weddings offer a modern solution to an age-old problem. By keeping the guest count to a minimum, we simplify the planning process, allowing you the liberty to fully enjoy every bit of your celebration, surrounded by the select few, most important people in your lives.

BECAUSE
BIGGER
IS NOT
ALWAYS
BETTER

We've been advising our clients with one primary directive for the last ten years - the lower your guest count, the easier your planning process will be. Minimal Matrimony offers two collections for your wedding experience. Micro weddings offer all the elements of a traditional ceremony, just on a smaller scale (up to 30 guests). Mini weddings offer a fully planned, designed, and executed ceremony and reception for a maximum of 50 guests,

Our team will make all of the decisions. You and your partner, along with your closest VIPs, show up and enjoy an impactful, meaningful celebration or elopement of your dreams. No fluff, no stress, and all the love.

Our style

information

Couples seeking New Orleans elopement packages, micro weddings, and mini weddings all want the same thing: small guest counts and a simplified planning experience! Your overall financial target, and how extensive your celebration will be determines whether a micro or mini wedding is right for you. 

Micro weddings are ideal for couples that want a quick ceremony, champagne toast, bite of cake and a send off with 30 or fewer guests. Mini weddings are perfect for couples seeking both a ceremony and reception, and value high-end touch points for each of their 50 or fewer guests, particularly with regard to food and beverage, as well as elevated design. 

HOW DO I KNOW IF A MICRO WEDDING OR MINI WEDDING IS THE RIGHT FIT FOR ME?

We'd love to book your date as soon as you become engaged! Our couples tend to gravitate toward short engagements, and 6 months out from the date is typical for a mini wedding. Dates and venues in prime wedding seasons book up well in advance for traditional weddings, so if you have your heart set on a popular venue or particular date, the sooner the better. 

How far out should i book my mini wedding?

We will announce official times when we release dates and venues. Generally, there will be four available time slots per date: Noon, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm. Dates are limited per season, and will be either Fridays or Sundays. First come, first served.

You shouldn't have to settle for anything contributing to unsavory emotions surrounding your big day. If it doesn't spark joy, you must leave it behind. Your engagement lasts for only a moment, passing so quickly you don't have time to fret over a multitude of details, nor cater to the plethora of opinions pulling you in different directions. The day is about you and your partner coming together to continue your lives as one, with your closest VIPs bearing witness. Stripping away the clutter, you are left with only the most intentional, purposeful elements that truly speak to the heart. People before things, experiences over materialism. All that remains is what matters most.

Marie Kondo is on to something: keep only what brings you joy, let go of the rest. the same principle applies to your wedding.
