Micro-Weddings at The Charles

The Charles is proud to offer a timely alternative to large events at this time in history: Simple Elopements and Micro-Weddings!

What does the Micro-Wedding Include?

*Affordable alternative to a traditional wedding.

  • Stress-free, we have the theme selected you just show up and get married. 

  • A hour and a half event from start-to-finish so you can go about your day celebrating your nuptials. 

  • Covid-safe option, a smaller scale wedding means you lessen the threat of infection and keep your loved ones safe. 

Micro-weddings are the perfect alternative to traditional large-scale weddings. The Charles Fort Wayne Event Center can offer the elegance of a traditional ceremony, but the intimacy and cost-effective benefits of elopements or court house weddings!

Our micro wedding package provides couples with the opportunity to host an intimate gathering with a fixed price and covid-safe protocols. While masks aren't currently mandated by the governor at this time, we recognize the concerns people have surrounding large-scale events. 

Further, we understand that not everyone adores planning a large wedding. Planning colors, decor, and flowers can cause some people to feel overwhelmed in what should otherwise be a joyous time. Our Micro-weddings come pre-planned for you! You just show up and get married. These events allow you to focus on the fun of the event rather than becoming stressed with the details.
