Plan a destination wedding early to allow guests to save money and plan vacations. Choose a location jointly, considering budget and transportation costs. Get everything in writing and consider packages from resorts.
Planning a destination wedding should be done as early as possible in order for guests who wish to attend to save money and plan vacations from work or school. If you plan to arrange the wedding planning steps at your destination before you get there, it’s important to work with people you trust to get the job done. As for choosing the destination itself, this is a decision that should be made jointly by the couple.
There are several interesting ways to choose the right geographical place to celebrate a wedding. One of the most obvious is having a destination wedding where a couple met for the first time, especially if it was in a foreign country or in a romantic setting. Another approach is to pick a place in the world that both people have always wanted to go, but haven’t been yet. Choosing a geographical location by pointing at random on a map is an adventurous way of choosing a wedding venue.
Budget should be your next consideration once you’ve chosen your wedding location. Destination weddings often have a large amount of the budget devoted to major transportation such as airfare and local limousine service to and from the actual wedding event. It is often considered good etiquette for the couple to pay for the transportation of those attending the wedding party, so this can add significantly to the expense. Since a destination wedding is often on a beach or other more casual venue, you can save money on attire for the event. Many couples save money on destination weddings by forgoing a separate honeymoon.
Within the wedding budget, travel, accommodation, venue, food, music and all other components of the event should be planned carefully. Especially when doing business with remote suppliers, it’s crucial that you get everything in writing, including receipts for any deposits. Having money saved up to go home after your destination wedding is also important to starting life together as a married couple.
When planning a destination wedding, at some resorts it may be possible to find a package that includes everything down to the licenses. It’s best to deal with a travel agent and/or get honest reviews of the resort so you aren’t disappointed with the accommodations or services when you arrive. If you are considering booking a wedding directly with a resort, ask and check the references of couples who have been married there.
