Planning a destination wedding is unlike anything else you’ve ever experienced. Trust me when I tell you that you’re about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime! Although destination weddings open up some creative possibilities that the average bride can’t pull off, you’ll also face some issues and challenges they’ll never face.
Your destination wedding planning consists of a ceremony, reception, vacations for you and your guests, as well as your honeymoon – all in one! You’re doing it long distance, without local contacts and in some cases a language barrier. Are you stressed out yet? Don’t be!

Below, you will find great tips and advice so that you can plan an amazing celebration that looks like a million bucks but without all the stress.
