 Step
1: Set The Budget |
|
 |
How To Determine Your Budget When thinking about your destination wedding budget, it is important to remember that you should be including the cost of your honeymoon. If you can afford a $5,000 wedding + $5000 honeymoon, then your destination wedding budget is $10,000. |
| Step
2: Pick The Right Location |
|
 |
What is your priority? Do you want somewhere romantic like Florence? Or, somewhere exotic like the Maldives? Is it a wedding for just you and your partner or do you need to consider a place your guests can afford? Is travel time an issue? |
 |
Do You Want Your Wedding At An All Inclusive Resort or Private Villa Weddings at a private villa or all-inclusive resort can be beautiful. This is generally based on the personality of you and your partner. All inclusive resorts can be simpler, but, some villa rental companies offer wedding coordinators. |
 |
Affordable Locations If affordability is important and you are from North America, The Caribbean, Mexico, and Hawaii (if you're on the west coast) offer some great options If you are from Europe, then interesting options would include Florence, Seychelles, and Slovenia. |

3: Who To Invite and How - Etiquette, and Rules |
|
 |
Who Should You Invite You can invite as many people as you want, as it is always polite, however, it is not likely that more than 20% of those invited will attend. |
 |
Travel and Lodging Info You are not expected/required to pay for travel or lodging. It would be a good idea to talk to those you would like to invite in order to get a good idea on numbers. This will allow you to look into jet charters and room costs for a certain number of guests. |
 |
What Should Be Included in the Invites It is a good idea to include travel costs and lodging costs in the invitation as this will make it possible for people make their decision. Maps and information and activities in the area all also appreciated. A wedding website becomes useful in these cases. |
 |
Who Pays For What As mentioned above, you do not need to pay for travel or lodging. However, you are required to pay for food on the evening of the wedding. Breakfast the morning after would also be nice. |
 |
Gift For the Bride and Groom When planning a destination wedding, it is not common for guests to provide the bride and groom with a gift. It is important to let people know this. The easiest way to spread this information is through family and friends, or your personal wedding website. |
