As Seen In
What is a micro wedding?
A micro wedding is an intimate celebration of 2 to 50 guests. It has everything a big wedding has; a ceremony, flowers, cake and dinner, but in a more personal, intentional setting. A smaller wedding means better venues, food, and actually getting to talk to everyone you invited.
In brief
Our Little Wedding plans micro weddings and elopements across California, from 2 to 50 guests. Every package includes personal florals, a custom cake, a licensed officiant, hair & makeup for one, a day-of coordinator, a detailed vendor timeline, and a planning portal, from $4,500. For your venue, food, and photographer, we curate a list made just for you.
How it works
What a California Micro Wedding Planner Does
Micro weddings still take real work, but we take the bulk of it off you. The vendors most couples dread chasing down are already in your package, and every one is a local business we choose to match exactly what you want. No two weddings look alike, so no two vendor lineups do either.
Included in every package
Your core vendors, all included
- Personal Florals
- Custom Cake
- Officiant
- Hair & Makeup
- Day-of Coordinator
All five key vendors in one package. Each hand picked to match your style, from the florals to the officiant. You tell us what you want and we bring you the right people.
You choose · we curate the list
The three choices that keep it yours
- Venue
- Food & Beverage
- Photographer
Not included in your package, but yours to choose. We want your budget to go where it matters most, so we curate a shortlist of California locals matched to your taste and budget, and help coordinate every step from there.
Want more? Add it on
Make it exactly what you want
- Simple & Beautiful, add extras
- A Full Celebration, add any vendor
Simple & Beautiful lets you add more florals, additional hair and makeup, and any other upgrade from our core inclusions. A Full Celebration opens it all the way up: add any vendor you want; DJ, transportation, live music, or rentals, at their cost.
Why we do this
“We spent years as wedding photographers at big, traditional weddings. It was always the small, intentional ones that stuck with us.”
Jaime Trabert · Founder
After years behind the camera, we noticed a pattern at small weddings: couples who wanted intentional weddings with a personal touch. They spent on what actually mattered to them (the food, location, wine, the people they truly wanted there) and let the rest go.
So that's how we built Our Little Wedding. We include the base, personal florals, cake, an officiant, hair & makeup, a coordinator, to make it easy on you. The big things stay fully yours, since no two couples are alike. Your taste, budget, venue, and photographer, not from a template.
And you don't have to have a first dance. You don't have to do any of it the “traditional” way, just the parts you actually want.
How it works
Here's how it goes, start to day-of
From first call to wedding day. Portal live same day you book.

You book, portal live same day
A deposit, and your personal planning portal goes live. Your timeline, every vendor, every decision, and the countdown, all in one place.

Venue, caterer, photographer, shortlists matched to your style and budget. The details (florals, cake, officiant, hair & makeup) are included. You choose.
4
We run your day
A day-of coordinator handles vendor arrivals, setup, and the full timeline, so the two of you are fully present.
Your planning portal
The whole plan, in one place
There's so much that goes into a wedding, and it usually ends up scattered across email, texts, and half-finished spreadsheets. We keep it all in one place instead, every decision held together, from the day you book, so nothing slips through the cracks.
Check in from your phone whenever you like, every decision captured and tracked in one place, so you always know where things stand. And if something needs to change down the line, it can; nothing's set in stone.

Love Notes
“This team did SUCH an amazing job planning the redwood forest wedding of our DREAMS during the pandemic! Casey was incredibly responsive and was always available to answer all of our questions and concerns throughout the whole process. Michelle made sure to help calm my pre-wedding nerves and coordinated every detail seamlessly on the day of the ceremony. Dennis was such a wonderful and attentive photographer that made us feel so comfortable as he captured all the special moments of our big day. Even though our wedding was only 30 guests, many of them told us it was one of the best ones they'd ever been to. I am SO deeply grateful to the Our Little Wedding team and cannot emphasize enough how fantastic they were!”

Common questions
The things couples actually ask
How much does a micro wedding cost in California?
Our packages start from $4,500 and scale with your guest count. Every package includes officiant, personal florals, wedding cake, hair & makeup, day-of coordinator, and your planning portal. For your venue, food & beverage, and photographer, we curate a list made just for you and coordinate everything.
What's included in your packages?
Personal florals, an officiant, a custom wedding cake, hair & makeup for one, a day-of coordinator on-site, a detailed timeline built and distributed to every vendor, and your planning portal. We also curate and coordinate your venue, photography, and food & beverage from our California network.
How far in advance should we book?
We recommend reaching out at least 3–6 months ahead, especially for peak season (May–October) and popular locations like San Francisco, Big Sur, and Sonoma. That said, we've planned weddings in as little as six weeks. Because we start with the place and keep timing flexible, the earlier you reach out, the more of the best venues are still open to you.
Do you plan outside San Francisco?
Yes, we plan intimate weddings across California, including Big Sur, Sonoma wine country, Lake Tahoe, Marin, Mendocino, Santa Cruz, Palm Springs, and San Francisco City Hall. We have years of relationships with venues, vendors, and local marriage license offices in each location.
