In 2022, Sarah Gill, writing for Image, presented an interesting editorial piece regarding the rise of micro weddings. For many, it seemed like an outcome of how wedding plans and celebrations all over had contracted with COVID taking a toll on people's enthusiasm and spending bandwidth and not just the industrial and IT workspace. The word "minimony" sounds cute until you sit with it for a
moment. It carries the tone of something reduced, something trimmed
down, something that quietly admits exhaustion. It didn’t come from
romance. It came from fatigue. From cancelled plans, shrinking guest
lists, closed borders, and the sudden realization that weddings had
grown too large to survive real disruption.
