Why Have a Destination Wedding?

There are a number of reasons why destination weddings are gaining in popularity. Did you know that in most cases a destination wedding is less expensive than planning a wedding in your own city?

With a typical wedding you often feel pressure to invite way more people than your budget will realistically allow and you find yourself having to decide between a long lost relative that you never see, or your neighbor who always invites you to everything and you feel the need to reciprocate. At a typical wedding, you’re on the run, meeting and greeting your guests, and before you know it, your special day is over and you’re exhausted.

If you are looking for a unique way to say “I do” while surrounded by your closest friends and family members, a destination wedding in a romantic location just might be the ticket for you. Having a destination wedding allows you to exchange vows in stunning paradise. Whether you envision your ceremony on a white sandy beach, atop a cliff overlooking the ocean, surrounded by mountains, or in a beautiful flowering garden, your options are endless.

A destination wedding gives you that rare opportunity to combine your special day with a fabulous vacation for you and the people who mean the most to you. Typically the bride and groom arrive ahead of their guests giving them some down time to relax and prepare. As the guests arrive everyone comes together and gets to experience the whole event in a beautiful vacation setting.

One of the best wedding gifts you can give yourself is to work with a travel agent. We take the stress and worry out of planning, AND are able to provide special amenities and perks for the bride and groom, as well as their guests. We go the extra mile to make sure your event is perfect. I would love to help you or someone you know “tie the knot” in paradise.

Your fun travel chick,
