Every couple who has gotten engaged eventually has a conversation concerning the details of their wedding. But it has been proven that there are only 20% of engaged couples who stage their weddings out of their own hometown. Many couples dream of a destination wedding where they can have a fantasy type ceremony in some beautiful exotic setting. But they also have a lot of question like how far away, city or country, inside or outside. They wonder if their family members will support such a wedding. If this is happening to you then you then consider some of these benefits to having a destination wedding:
1. Destination weddings are not as hard to plan as traditional weddings. Most hotels and resorts actually reserve wedding planners for helping people like you with making all the necessary arrangements. Everything from your wedding cake to what music will be played are points of competition between the hotels and resorts who compete for your business.
2. Having the flexibility of choosing your own location to fit with your dream is a true benefit. And it’s also one of the main reasons that many couples choose the destination wedding option. Regardless of whether you choose Vegas or an exotic Caribbean island you are only limited by your imagination. Just follow your dream and take the plunge.
3. You’ll see that you family and your friends will be grateful. This I know from experience. My destination wedding was held in Tahiti and as newlyweds and beyond we never stopped hearing about how great it was. Our guests all got to have a couple days of vacation time at a beautiful exotic location. And because we booked it as a group the rates were excellent. We got to enjoy quality time with friends and family which by itself made it all worth it.
4. This type of wedding will never be forgotten. For a lot of our guests, this could be the only destination wedding they’ll ever get to see and will never forget. The uniqueness of it will stick with them for life. As I stated before only 20% of all couples end up marrying away from their hometown. But those who do will have an experience that will mark this most important day forever.
5. You still have to be involved in the decorating and arrangements. But the sheer beauty of your chosen location is what gives the ceremony its ambiance. It doesn’t matter if you hold your wedding on a beach or in some famous plantation home you can be sure that you are going to have a beautiful ceremony without all the normal hassles of traditional weddings.
I could rattle on all day but when you get down to the nitty-gritty it’s simply your own personal choice. You have the right to choose what you want for you own wedding. But if you’re willing to take a chance on a destination wedding you can see for yourself just how remarkable and memorable the rewards are. All couples have various options for what kind of wedding to have. So don’t rush it. Just spend time thinking about just what it would take to make your wedding an event that will be unique and something to be cherished for the rest of your life. Destination weddings can indeed produce the memories you want to the most important day of your life.
