Elopement vs. Micro Wedding vs. Pop-Up Wedding? What's the difference? | Charleston, Atlanta, Europe Destination Elopement, Micro and Pop-Up Wedding Planners | Scarlet Plan & Design

Elopements, Micro Weddings & Pop-Up Weddings, oh my! But what’s the difference?

You’re probably hearing these terms all over the place lately, but it can be a little confusing to figure out what makes them different and see if any of those might be the right fit for you and your fiance. No worries, I’m gonna help break it all down!

People choose to elope or downsize their weddings for lots of reasons, but most couples opt to go tiny because it’s intimate, more affordable, stress-free and utterly romantic. It’s also a unique alternative to typical wedding styles, ensuring your big day is all about the two of you and your love story.

"Who should we feed?"

We answer this question a lot and more often than not, couples just aren't sure who to include in their headcount. Short answer: any vendor who is on site for the duration of the wedding should be fed a hot meal. That means you feed:

the wedding planner and their team,
the photographer and their assistants,
the DJ or the band,
the videographer,
the people working the photo booth,
is hair/makeup staying to keep you looking fresh? is there live entertainment like dancers or cigar rollers? a fabulous henna artist painting hands and feet all night? anyone staying for the duration of your wedding should be on the list for meals.
