A micro wedding is proof that less really can be more—fewer guests, fewer logistics, and way less stress, but all the love and celebration packed into an intimate, unforgettable gathering.

Coming Soon

It was nothing short of exceptional.

We attended an event at the 1860 Schulhaus. Let me say it was nothing short of exceptional. The venue is so welcoming and the owners have done a phenomenal job with redoing to space and making it their own. Looking forward to the next event there.
