From a tropical island to a country side in Italy, a destination wedding can be romantic and beautiful. Where to begin when planning such an event? Start with an experienced wedding planner. There are many details that go into planning a wedding and when it comes to planning out of the country, you want someone who has the resources and expertise to guide you in the right direction. Here are a few tips when starting the planning process:
- Consider the weather for the time of year you want to get married. If considering an island wedding, try choosing a date that isn't during hurricane season.
- Giving family members and guest plenty of time to plan ahead will ensure most of them can attend. Be prepared that some people may not attend due to health, finances or simply a fear of flying.
- Although you are not required to pay all travel expenses, it would be good etiquette to plan travel arrangements as well as accommodations. Giving guest options and pricing will also be quite helpful. Find out about discounts to not only travel and accommodations but also entertainment and activities for your guest during their stay. Some may use this as their vacation.
