Destination Wedding Planning Tips

By Ella Hemmings


Often the idea of planning a huge wedding and reception is quite daunting, and rather than deal with all of the stress of a large event, many couples prefer to have a smaller, more intimate ceremony at a special destination. While a destination wedding is an excellent way to ensure that your wedding day is truly memorable, planning it all from thousands of miles away can be challenging. Here are a few ways to make planning a destination wedding easier.

Planning a wedding anywhere is easier with an experienced wedding planner, but this is especially true if you are marrying at a faraway destination, such as Maui, which is one of the most popular wedding sites in the world. An experienced Maui wedding coordinator, such as those at Love Maui Weddings, can make everything as easy as possible. At Love Maui Weddings, for instance, the wedding planners can handle almost all of the details from finding your minister to securing a special location and all the other details such as ordering flowers, hiring a photographer, finding musicians, setting up the ceremony site and much more.

One way to make it even easier is to simply purchase a Maui wedding package or a wedding package from wherever you choose to be married. At Love Maui Weddings, there are many packages to think about, including packaging for those wishing to elope, for couples who will have only a few guests and for couples wishing to invite a larger party of guests. You can choose from a huge assortment of destinations, and there are even some amazing add-ons to consider that will personalize your Maui weeding package.

Consider, for instance, the "Love is in the Air" option from Love Maui Weddings. For less than $2,500, this Maui beach wedding package includes a ceremony on the beach with a Hawaiian minister, as well as a guitarist or vocalist, a maiden bearing a torch, a hula dancer or drummer and a conch sounding. This package also includes photography and a special DVD and plenty more amenities. For an extra charge, you can have the bride arrive to the wedding ceremony on an outrigger canoe.

If there is one truth about traveling, it's that it certainly can be expensive and because of travel costs, destination weddings often include a smaller party than you would have at home. For the loved ones that will be attending the ceremony, make the process of securing plane tickets and lodging as easy as possible. You can help them plan out their flights and reserve rooms at a hotel for them, and some hoteliers will even discount rates if you set aside a block of guest rooms for a wedding party.

It is nice to create a special wedding welcome package for your guests. Include an itinerary of all the wedding-related events as well as a map of the area. It can be fun to plan a few fun excursions for your guests, if possible. For example, if you are marrying on Maui, treat everyone to a sunset whale watching cruise. Often your wedding planner can help with these types of arrangements, so be sure to ask.
