Are you planning a destination wedding? If so, you’re likely feeling a mix of excitement and stress. But don’t worry – we’ve got you covered. In this blog post, we’ll share five tips that will help make your destination wedding planning process seamless and stress-free.
1. Start planning early
Starting early means you'll have plenty of time to consider different locations, compare packages and make all the necessary arrangements. It's important to keep in mind that during COVID-19 travel restrictions Destination Weddings were put on hold. This means popular locations are now quickly being booked out over the next few years by other couples eager to finally have a wedding celebration.
2. Research the location
Not all destinations are created equal when it comes to weddings. Do your research or work with your destination wedding expert to pick a place that will meet all of your needs and expectations.
Consider things like the climate, the scenery, the accessibility and the overall cost. And if you don't know, ask an expert.
3. Consider your guestlist
One of the benefits of having a destination wedding is that it can help you keep your guest list smaller than a traditional wedding. While destination weddings can still have plenty of guests, generally you will find closer friends and family choose to make the trip and those you are not as close with may not.
4. Focus on the details
When you're caught up in the excitement of planning a destination wedding, it's easy to forget about the little things. But don't let the small details slip through the cracks. Make sure you've taken care of everything from the moment your guests hop on the plane to the farewell party. Our next tip can help you with this one!
5. Use a travel agent
Most importantly, work with a travel agent who has years of experience in planning destination weddings (like us). A good travel agent can be worth their weight in gold when it comes to destination wedding planning. They can take almost everything off your hands, including booking flights, finding accommodation and making all the other arrangements that are necessary for your big day.
