When deciding where to have their weddings, many couples look at local venues such as churches, parks, private homes, or hotel ballrooms, but these are not your only options. If you and your fiance are trying to choose the best wedding location, why not consider a destination instead? Destination weddings can often seem like complicated events to plan, but they are actually quite simple, cost-effective, and a truly memorable way to spend your special day.
Let’s look at some of the benefits of a destination wedding:
Cost-Effectiveness
Weddings are expensive. By the time you pay for the venue, the dress, flowers and other decorations, catering, etc., your budget may tell you that a honeymoon is simply not an option. With the average Canadian wedding topping $30,000, destination weddings are comparatively affordable. Run the numbers with an Absolute Wedsite wedding planner to find out what your best options are.
Guest Limit
One of the biggest dilemmas couples face while planning their weddings is deciding who to invite. Destination weddings are typically much smaller with a limited number of guests. Your destination wedding could include only a handful of your closest family and friends.
Casual Event
Having a destination wedding means you get to have a wedding that is as formal or as casual as you want. After all, all your beach wedding needs is a small cluster of chairs and someone to officiate.
