Capturing Moments, Not Crowds: The Beauty of Low Key Weddings

October 3, 2023

Planning a wedding can be an overwhelming task. The sheer scale of modern weddings, with their hefty price tags and extensive guest lists, often leaves couples questioning if it’s all worth it. But fear not, there’s a delightful middle ground that combines tradition with intimacy – the micro wedding. Here at GJP Photography, we specialise in capturing the essence of these intimate celebrations, and we’re here to tell you why low key weddings rock and why you should consider one for your special day.

Why Low Key?

A micro wedding, typically hosting no more than 50 guests, offers an opportunity to celebrate without the fuss. With fewer guests, there’s less stress, fewer opinions to consider, and more freedom to let your imagination run wild. Whether it’s your favorite restaurant, a charming AirBNB, a private garden, or even a marquee in a paddock, the options are limitless.

The Essentials

Regardless of the size, every wedding needs great food, music, and alcohol. These elements create an atmosphere of celebration. And let’s not forget the joy of dressing up specifically for the occasion. Imagine the delight on your grandchildren’s faces when they see how fabulous you both looked in the photos, fifty years from now!

Photography: Capturing the Moments

One thing that every wedding, big or small, should have is a photographer. Your micro wedding is no exception. At GJP, we offer custom packages tailored for smaller gatherings. We understand the unique charm of intimate weddings and specialise in capturing the heartfelt moments that define them.

Personal Touches

Intimacy allows for meaningful touches that truly make your day memorable. Personal vows, sentimental details like heirloom jewelery, handwritten notes to guests, or even having your furry friend walk down the aisle – these are the elements that add a personal touch to your celebration. We love photographing these unique aspects, weaving them into the story of your day.

Budget-Friendly and Meaningful

The beauty of a micro wedding lies not only in its intimacy but also in its cost-effectiveness. Typically costing over 50% less than traditional weddings, micro weddings allow you to invest in what truly matters to you. Every dollar spent goes towards creating meaningful experiences and lasting memories with your nearest and dearest.
