The Magic of Microweddings at The Wells Estate
Small guest count, big impact.
When we say microweddings are having their moment—we mean it. But let’s be honest… they’ve earned it. For couples craving something a little more intentional, more connected, and yes—more luxurious—downsizing the guest list is just the beginning of what’s possible.
At The Wells Estate, we’re no strangers to intimate celebrations. Our sprawling grounds and versatile spaces are built to flex, scale, and support Upstate NY gatherings of every size—but there’s something extra dreamy about a wedding that’s deliberately small.
Room to Dream, Even with a Smaller Crowd
With a microwedding, your event footprint doesn’t have to feel “micro” at all. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
From inviting celebrations tucked inside the Estate House, to luxurious dinners in the Countryside Cathedral, to golden hour mingling on the Grand Arches patio, you’ll have access to the full venue experience. And with a smaller guest count? That just means more space to move, breathe, and let your day unfold with intention. Every location of The Wells Estate is yours for your wedding weekend to enjoy and set up exactly as you want it.
Planning an indoor lounge moment, a welcome cocktail hour outdoors, or even a weekend itinerary? Done, done, and done. Our estate wasn’t just built for big weddings—it was built for beautiful ones.
Let’s Talk Planning—Because You Deserve to Enjoy This
Our team is with you every step of the way. Like, every micro-step (we had to). Whether you’re starting with a Pinterest board or a playlist, we’re here to help bring your vision to life—without the overwhelm.
We’ve hosted weddings of all shapes and sizes, and the one thing that never changes? Our attention to detail. We’ll help you select the perfect layout, coordinate with vendors, and streamline your timeline so that all you have to do is… well, show up and celebrate.
Big Flavor, Smaller Guest List
When the party’s more intimate, the menu can really be a wow factor.
Thanks to our in-house culinary team at Partyman Catering, you’ll have access to an expansive selection of chef-curated menus, late-night bites, custom bar offerings, and even interactive food stations designed to wow.
Whether you’re envisioning a full plated dinner or a playful grazing station-style experience, we’ll help you select options that reflect your personality and feel just right for your guest list.
The Experience is the Luxury
Want to spoil your guests with a cozy cocktail moment? Done. Thinking about an interactive culinary experience? Let’s talk. Dreaming of welcome gifts, yard games, or a custom s’mores station under the stars? Honestly, we love that for you.
Your smaller guest count gives you the freedom to elevate every moment, adding special touches that might feel impossible in a bigger crowd. Our job is to make those dreams feel doable—and then, deliver them flawlessly.
It’s Not Just a Wedding—It’s a Story Told Beautifully
Microweddings are about presence. Meaningful moments. Thoughtful details. And at The Wells Estate, we’re all in.
So whether your guest list lands at 20, 40, or 70—we’re here to help you create something unforgettable.
