Planning a destination wedding is easier today than ever before, and in many cases, it's simpler than planning a traditional wedding at home. Still, it's natural to have questions! Here are six of the most common ones brides ask (and our answers!).
How will I decide on my resort and location?
This is usually the toughest part of planning. Our best advice? Work with a travel advisor who specializes in destination weddings. Anyone can book a vacation, but planning a wedding for 20, 40, or even 100 guests takes a unique skill set.
The agents at Romance Travel Group live and breathe destination weddings. We'll help you find the resort and location that fits your vision perfectly.
Will my guests attend?
Most of your guests will be thrilled at the idea of combining a wedding with a vacation! Some may worry about cost or safety, but your travel advisor will guide them through everything and answer their questions.
Trust us, your guests will rave about the experience. Many groups even start traveling together every year after the wedding because they had such a great time celebrating.
How much will all this cost?
Great question! As a couple, you can usually expect to spend under $10,000 for your trip, ceremony, and reception combined. Costs vary, of course, but this is a solid estimate.
Guests typically spend about $1,100 for a 3-night, 4-day all-inclusive stay. That covers food, drinks, accommodations, and the wedding festivities. It's a great value compared to a traditional wedding weekend at home!
With the resort so far away, how can I be sure I'll get what I want?
Nearly all resorts have wedding teams on-site to bring your vision to life. You can send them photos, Pinterest boards, or detailed notes, and they'll recreate exactly what you have in mind.
Anything you'd expect at a wedding at home, like decor, flowers, cake, entertainment, can also be done at a destination wedding!
Who is going to help with all the travel plans?
That's where your destination wedding travel expert comes in. She'll work one-on-one with your guests to book their trips, whether they're staying for three nights or making a week-long vacation out of it.
Your agent will manage the details so you don't have to! This leaves you free to enjoy the fun parts of planning.
How will I know what needs to be done?
Between your travel expert and your on-site wedding coordinator, you'll have a full team making sure every detail is covered. They'll walk you through the steps, keep you on track, and ensure your day unfolds seamlessly.
You'll be amazed at how stress-free the process can be when you have the right support!
