Why choose a destination wedding?
Destination weddings have become increasingly popular because of the complete experience they offer. If you’re also considering this option, we’ve prepared a few reasons why it would be the right choice for you in this article. But also what to consider as disadvantages.
What are the advantages of a destination wedding?
First of all, as the name says, the destination wedding is held in a spectacular location. And the options are much more varied than a wedding in your own city. Plus, the experience such a wedding offers both the couple and their guests is much more meaningful. The couple can choose a completely new destination to satisfy their desire to explore, or one that is very dear to them, that they feel attached to and want to share with their guests.
Another advantage is the invitations you choose. Travelling to another city or country usually means a more intimate wedding. That way, you’ll have the people you care about most at your big event. And you’ll carry the memories you create with you for the rest of your life. You can also spend more time with them, exploring the event destination or organizing a dinner the day before.
Even if you think such a wedding will cost a lot, you can actually save quite a lot. Once by being able to continue your honeymoon at the same destination, and the transportation costs are only incurred once. Then by the packages that hotels or resorts offer to couples who choose a destination wedding. And last but not least, the smaller guest list.
What are the disadvantages of a destination wedding?
Even if the guests you’re having mean a lot to you and you’re excited about the idea of an intimate wedding, traveling can be a problem for some of them. Not everyone will be willing to bear the costs involved. Which brings us to the second disadvantage. Even if you can save money with such a wedding, you may have to cover travel and accommodation costs for some guests you really want to attend the event and can’t afford.
Another thing you need to take care of is that the certificate issued in that country is also recognised in your country of residence. It is important to make sure that everything is legal.
Destination weddings give an even more special and important touch to your wedding. In addition to the spectacular location, you can take part in many activities with the people most important to you.
