How Couples Found Stunning Micro Wedding Venues for $600 to $2,700 on Peerspace

In recent years, micro-weddings have taken the wedding world by storm, offering couples a more intimate celebration with their closest loved ones. According to Brides.com, a micro-wedding is a scaled down version of a regular wedding, typically with no more than 50 guests. As budgets tighten and preferences shift towards experiences that are both meaningful and manageable, Peerspace has emerged as a game-changer in helping couples create their dream wedding day—without the traditional wedding price tag.

Finding the Perfect Venue at Any Budget
For many couples, finding the right venue is the most challenging part of wedding planning. Arielle and her partner Mike dreamed of a Brooklyn backyard wedding but lacked a backyard space of their own. “We live in New York City; we don’t have outdoor space—it’s coveted.”

They Peerspaced this beautiful backyard venue for their ceremony for under $900. The best part? It was steps away from their apartment. “I put in my zip code and looked at the spaces that were walking distance from my apartment, and I found a perfect one.”

Taylor, who planned her wedding in Chicago, shared that her wedding budget goal was under $10,000. Her venue cost came in at just over $1,200, without sacrificing her vision. “I didn’t want to rely on heavy decor; I wanted a space that was architecturally beautiful on its own,” she explained. “The design of our venue was simply stunning, and it turns out one of the hosts is an architect.”

A Seamless Planning Experience
For Celine, planning her Southern California wedding remotely from Austin, Texas, felt surprisingly effortless thanks to her host’s exceptional support. “Planning a wedding out of state was a huge risk, but the owners were so welcoming and inviting. They really wanted to make it work for us.”

Celine’s venue, which cost under $2,700, provided a stunning backdrop for her special day. “The entryway made for a really pretty first-look shot, and there was this gorgeous orange tree in the backyard that became a focal point for our photos.”

By the time her wedding day arrived, Celine had built such a strong connection with her hosts that she invited them to join the celebration. “They ate and drank with us, and we had cake together. They became part of the wedding, which was so awesome.”

Sierra and Corey’s host also went above and beyond to ensure their wedding day was everything they envisioned. “Our host added an extra degree of care to make sure we’d get exactly what we wanted.”

With their total venue cost at just over $1,000, the couple found Peerspace’s price transparency refreshing. “A lot of wedding venues add a “wedding tax,” but on Peerspace, the price is clearly listed,” Sierra noted, appreciating the straightforward booking process.

Exceeding Expectations Without Exceeding Budget

Omar, a wedding photographer (@omarlopez.photos), booked a stunning venue for just over $600. He was thrilled to discover that the hosts had renovated their garage into a stylish, air-conditioned area where he and his partner could get ready for the ceremony. “The space just exceeded our expectations. The extra amenities and attention to detail provided by the hosts made the day even more special.”

More on exceeding expectations, Taylor shared, “When I first saw the listing online, the brick wall was bare—it was winter, and nothing had bloomed. But on our wedding day, it transformed into a lush wall of ivy. As the breeze came through, the leaves would flutter, creating the most beautiful, unexpected moment. It was beyond anything I could have imagined.”

As more couples opt for micro-weddings, Peerspace is becoming an invaluable resource to having a memorable and affordable wedding day. By offering access to unique venues that can be tailored to any vision, Peerspace allows couples to focus on what truly matters: celebrating their love in a setting that feels special and perfectly them—without breaking the bank. As these couples have shown, with the right venue, even the smallest weddings can leave a lasting impression.
