Some Tips for Destination Wedding Planning

“When you realise you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” — Nora Ephron.

 

Nora Ephron was the renowned American journalist, writers and filmmaker of yesteryear. She was so apt when she spoke on ” Wedding” on a social occasion, and it was so true even in our times. Weddings are indeed a big day in our lives, and destination wedding is the happening thing for the new-gen ” To Be Wed ” couples.

 

Where Do I Begin?

It all starts with your beautiful engagement day when the couples decide to make the beginning of their thousand-mile journey together with solemn promise and exchange of the engagement rings. The next stop is the big wedding day. The ongoing excitement, Romance and dreams to make it big and memorable are your aspirations always, and you can make it happen with a well-planned destination wedding.

 

You may consider the blog post as your complete information on everything about a destination wedding. First of all, let us now understand what a “Destination Wedding ” is all about, and you can start the planning accordingly.

A destination wedding is a wedding ceremony held away from your city. But it may not have to be in a foreign country or even on a beach. Things have changed, and the current Indian wedding trends are where the couple wants for their Best Day Ever together.

 

Most of the couples today are choosing locations that have a unique association with them.   If you are from Delhi, you can plan for places like Rishikesh, Shimla or Jaipur. Should you be keen on travelling a bit more, you may pick up Kerala or Goa. But if you have a fancy overseas destination in mind, places like Maldives, Dubai or Mauritius are great. It’s your dream wedding, and you must take a call together.

 

 

Finding and Closing On the Destination

Discuss with your partner and see where the meeting point is. Suppose you are passionate about the beachside, or a desert resort or a hill station, zero on your choice. You may look at places that you’ve been to before or always wanted to visit.

It’s a lot easier to develop wedding weekend activities when you’re familiar with the location. For example, hosting a welcome party at a local restaurant where you tell everyone why the site is so unique will have your guests super excited that they came. It is not a bad idea to visit the place in advance and have a one to one chat with the resort authority and spell out your ideas.

 

Time it Right

Unfortunately, the best weather in popular vacation destinations tends to correlate with tourist season, when there are typically more crowds, fewer hotel and venue availabilities, and higher rates all around.

If you’re planning a destination wedding during this peak time, book your venue and reserve your room blocks through an online booking service like a Hotel Planner as soon as possible. If you opt for the shoulder season, you may be able to save yourself and your guests some money and still enjoy great weather. While the off-season will mean fewer crowds, the weather can be a gamble (consider the Caribbean’s hurricane season and the summer heat waves that occur in parts of Europe), and you may find that many stores, venues and vendors close up shop.

 

Destination Wedding Invitation

Destination wedding invitations are pretty similar to local wedding invites. Once you compile the final guest list, send it with the basic information, I advise you to include an insert with weekend itinerary details. If you’re planning a welcome party, make sure to get that all together in one place with exact locations and timing. And don’t forget any dress codes that guests need to know about and invite a personalised one with RSVP.

 

You may send a digital wedding invitation. Professional agencies like Video Tailor, a top wedding photographer in Delhi, has more than 50 exciting video invitation templates framing your memories beautifully in the wedding invitation videos.
