10 EXPERT TIPS FOR AN AFFORDABLE AND MEMORABLE DESTINATION WEDDING

These days, one in four weddings is a destination wedding, giving couples – and their guests – a reason to blend the joy of a marriage celebration with a fun and memorable vacation. Planning a destination wedding suitable for all your attendees is easier than you think.

1. Plan ahead

It’s said to plan nine to 12 months is the optimum planning time, especially for a destination wedding. Many couples start planning a destination wedding as soon as they get engaged. While the summer months are typically most popular for couples, when choosing a date, it’s recommends considering a Friday or weekday wedding, or planning the big day during the less-crowded but still desirable shoulder seasons (spring and fall).

2. Select a destination that caters to all guests

Consider a location with something for everyone.

3. Research ceremony locations

Beautiful and unique ceremony locations are one of the perks of having a destination wedding. Research wedding venues, travel and accommodation options, and rates, then rank the venues you like best.

5. Help guests plan activities

Travel is the foundation for long-lasting memories. In fact, a recent survey found 62 percent of adults said their earliest memories were of family vacations taken when they were between ages 5 and 10. Help your guests – particularly families with young ones – get the most out of their trip by suggesting activities or even making reservations for dinners, tee times, theme parks, museums, etc., before arrival.

6. Hire a wedding planner

Planning a destination wedding doesn’t need to be stressful – hire a wedding planner. Wedding planners know the local wedding professionals and venues including the city regulations for beach weddings. The perfect wedding can be accomplished with the help of a wedding planner as they know the ins and outs of planning a beautiful wedding so couples and their guests can enjoy the true beauty of the wedding.

7. Consider a pre-wedding visit

If possible, attend a local wedding show to meet wedding professionals one-on-one or plan a ‘wedding planning trip’ to visit venues and meet with wedding vendors. Remember to take notes so you can recall all the details when you’re back home.

8. Get wedding insurance

Give yourself peace of mind by purchasing the appropriate wedding insurance. Research to find the best coverage for your wedding.

9. Be mindful of budget

Start your marriage off on the right financial foot by keeping your wedding on-budget. Many couples planning destination weddings find them to be similar or even more affordable than traditional weddings back home.

10. Enjoy!

This is perhaps the most important step of all. Don’t forget to enjoy the experience of planning this memorable day and enjoying the company of your guests. Take pictures, sample cakes, pick out flowers and remember these moments and the beautiful destination you selected.
