There's something refreshing about a wedding that skips the guest list stress and gets straight to what matters. This micro-wedding at Minneapolis City Hall brought together about 20 of the couple's closest people — no seating chart, no thirteen-piece bridal party, just the ones who actually mattered standing close enough to hug right after "I do." The building did plenty of the heavy lifting on its own — marble floors, soaring ceilings, and gorgeous natural light pouring in — proof that you don't need a ballroom to make a wedding feel grand. For city hall weddings like this one, I recommend a 2-hour coverage minimum — enough time for getting-ready moments, the ceremony, and a few portraits around the building afterward, without rushing what's already a pretty perfectly-paced day.
