Why Choose to Elope or Have a Small Wedding?

Traditional weddings can quickly become overwhelming in both planning and cost. In fact, about 32% of couples who hosted larger weddings wish they had spent less or opted for a smaller, more personal event. At The Lakehouse Folk Venue, we embrace this shift towards micro weddings and elopements, offering a stunning yet intimate space where your special day can be celebrated without the excess stress or expense.

The Benefits of Eloping or Having a Micro Wedding

Choosing to elope or host a micro wedding has numerous benefits. Not only does it allow you to focus on the love between you and your partner, but it also removes many of the logistical headaches that come with a larger wedding. A smaller guest list means more time to spend with each person, ensuring that your wedding feels intimate and personal. Plus, the financial savings mean you can invest more in other areas, such as a honeymoon or even starting a new life together free of debt.
