Upscale California Minimonies: The Complete Micro-Wedding
The Minimony is the premier choice for couples who desire a "full wedding" atmosphere on a sophisticated, smaller scale. This all-inclusive service provides more than just a ceremony; it is a curated, intimate event featuring a stunning garden setting and professional amenities. Bodas by Lina specializes in these boutique celebrations, offering a 2 to 3-hour experience in a cozy setting for up to 16 people. Every detail, from the decor to the legalities, is managed with absolute care and professionalism.


Dedicated Marriage Registry Advice and Legal Completion
Securing the legal foundation of your micro-wedding should be a seamless and stress-free process. Bodas by Lina provides comprehensive advice for obtaining your marriage license at the registrar's office, ensuring every California-specific requirement is met. Detailed guidance simplifies the journey, from navigating County Clerk appointments to verifying your necessary identification so your garden celebration proceeds without administrative delay.
Once your vows are exchanged, the legal marriage registration is handled in strict accordance with the California Family Code. Bodas by Lina ensures the license is correctly executed by the couple and their witnesses, then ensures it is returned to the County Recorder within the mandated 10-day window. This professional oversight protects your union from clerical errors, facilitating a smooth transition into married life.
Private Wedding Studio and Full Garden Amenities
This premium service offers an all-inclusive "turn-key" solution for a meaningful and elegant celebration. The package includes exclusive use of the wedding studio, providing a private sanctuary for the couple to add their final touches before the ceremony begins. Guests are welcomed into a fully Decorated Garden featuring a professional wedding arch, fine linens, and comfortable seating.
The celebration is further enhanced with a dedicated cake and hors d'oeuvres table (food & beverages not included), featuring toast flutes, a faux wedding cake for elegant photography, and atmospheric music and bubbles.
