As a professional micro-wedding planner, I’ve personally planned over 500 small weddings. This book is a complete compendium of everything that I think a couple needs to know about planning their own microwedding, elopement, or vow renewal. In the back of the book, you’ll find my Planning Toolkit with worksheets, checklists, and to-do lists, for you to work through as you go!
