Destination Weddings
If you have decided on a destination wedding- especially out of the country- we have some advice for you. Because more couples are choosing this option, we have some sound and practical information and reminders for you. Decide on your guest list, which will likely be small. Research your chosen destination over and over. If it is a non-English speaking place, contact the Embassy and ask for information about the length of time you must reside there before you can marry there. This can vary from a few hours to several months depending on the country. If at all possible, visit the location before you make your final decision. Book your site early and have a local wedding planner do the legwork. Be mindful of the fact that other cultures are not always as prompt to reply as we expect. Nor do they always have written contracts. Once you have made your decision, resolve to be flexible and relaxed about the outcome. Everything will work out!!
