What’s a “Minimony” and Why Should You Have One?

There are so many new ways to marry. The traditional, large wedding and reception model isn’t out, but couples have realized that tradition doesn’t have to dictate their day. You’ve definitely heard of an elopement, and you’ve probably heard of a micro-wedding, but have you heard of a minimony?


A minimony is a great option for any couple to consider when planning their wedding. It consists of a smaller, simple ceremony that usually only includes a few family and close friends. Then, the couple will have some type of larger celebration, but usually later on. If considering whether a minimony is for you, read through this list to see! If you are:

-       Currently unable to afford a large wedding or want to save your money for something else

-       Unable to gather in large groups due to health concerns

-       About to be deployed in the military, starting a medical residency, moving or going through a large life event

-       Or worried about the effect of COVID on your big day

…then having a minimony is a great option for you!

Great locations for minimonies are at the courthouse, in your backyard, at the beach or in the mountains. However, the possibilities are endless because you aren’t limited by a large number of guests!
