Why not celebrate your love in a dream location! A destination wedding allows you to travel somewhere fabulous while enjoying a relaxing vacation; this is nice for guests who have to travel anyways to your not so exciting hometown. Share your love in paradise or go the country you originated from. Wherever you choose, it will be a time to remember.
There are tons of pros to this as well. If you decide on a destination wedding there’s less family drama. One set of parents wants the wedding to be held in a cathedral and the other set wants it in their backyard. The event should be about the two people getting married – they shouldn’t have to worry about the kind of wedding their family wants!
Destination weddings are also cost effective. The couple can fly to the resort, get married, and stay for their honeymoon for a few thousand dollars. Having a wedding reception with 100 guests could cost about $20,000!
Also, you can do whatever you want! Think of what reflects your personality as a couple. Would you like to have an African experience or a beach ceremony? Do you want to wear a sundress or shorts? Dream it up!
At a typical wedding, you’re on the run, meeting and greeting. Destination weddings are vacation time. How often do you have the opportunity to spend quality playtime with close family and friends? This is your opportunity.
Lastly, a destination wedding is stress-free. It’s simpler and faster to plan than a traditional wedding and reception, especially when hiring a wedding planner. The planner becomes familiar with that country’s marriage license requirements so you don’t have to. They take care of all your ceremony essentials like photographer, cake, officiate, etc. Your only job is to sign the papers, relax and enjoy.
This is a once in a life time chance so celebrate it in a dream location!
