Your wedding is a big day, but what’s really huge right now are things that are tiny. Miniature foods, drinks, favors and even cakes are all the rage. Here are some ideas to help you incorporate this trend into your wedding.
Finger Foods Finger sandwiches are a great idea for a garden wedding, but you can take this even farther. Mini tacos, sliders, pigs in a blanket all can be miniaturized. Serve these tiny dishes as passed dishes or on distanced tables. A Taste of Cake Wedding cakes have been shrinking lately. Full cakes became cupcakes and are now cake pops and cake balls. These tiny treats can be stacked in layers and arranged in adorable ways to complement your decor and theme. Drinks We all know a tiny drink is most commonly a shot. There are ways, however, that your bartender can craft little specialty shots that are more elegance and less frat party. Favors Think little bottles of local honey or wine, miniature chocolate bars with your monogram and the date, itty bitty bottles of liquor —all are great ideas for jumping on the tiny train. Keep your tiny favors local to give your guests a great memento of the day.
Clothing Even clothes are getting in on the trend, including shorter skirts that bare knees and legs for warmer days for brides and bridesmaids. Crowds As the pandemic rolls on, couples are trimming guests lists to accommodate local rules on gatherings and to make their ceremonies safer. And it’s a trend that may stick, experts say. It also plays into a more enduring trend of minimalism and choosing experiences over expense. Cornman Farms in Michigan offers a small wedding package and noticed the trend before COVID-19. It accommodates a tiny crowd and offers couple a stunning backdrop for their big day. “When we first came up with this, a pandemic not being considered, we said it was designed for couples who wanted simplicity and affordability but still wanted those Instagram-worthy photos,” said Jamie Gray, the farm’s marketing and communications manager, in The Detroit News. “They kind of get the best of both.”
