A micro wedding refers to a celebration with a few more people than an elopement, but is much smaller than a traditional wedding. Usually 10-30 guest will be in attendance.
Florals for a wedding of this scale are usually paired down in terms of table decor, and more focused on vibrant and distinct florals for the couple.
