Choose the perfect location

The best part about the destination wedding is that it doubles as a honeymoon. Therefore you should choose an exotic location, a place you’ve always wanted to visit but somehow the idea always slipped away. Hawaii is always a great idea because there are many wonderful beaches that are perfect for a beach wedding and you can always be original and organize a traditional Hawaiian wedding ceremony following native customs. Well, wouldn’t that be an awesome story to tell your grandchildren?!

Also, a smart way to choose a destination is by factoring in points and miles inventory. That way you will have an awesome ceremony plus honeymoon without having to travel and enough time to explore every little detail of your favorite place in the whole wide world. Choose a location where you can easily utilize your points and use all those airline miles you’ve collected over time. This is perfect for the couples that fly a lot and have a bunch of unused airline miles.

Rely on professionals

If all the planning makes you feel nervous you can always hire a local wedding planner that can do all the work for you. Especially if you are planning on inviting family and friends and don’t really have good organizing skills.

Another benefit of hiring a professional wedding planner is the legal stuff. For example, if you’ve always wanted to get married in Sydney but don’t really know how to start planning or you don’t have a visa, simply rely on wedding planners that sort out the legalities before you come to Australia.

Take time and plan in detail

The last and the most important thing is to plan way ahead the actual wedding day. You should organize a guest list (keep it small to moderate) and send out invitation early. As early as you do all of these steps, the more time your guests and family will have to organize their work and postpone the things that can be postpone and save money for the trip.

Also, you should set a budget to keep finances under control and leave a little extra for the unexpected expenses. That way you will make sure that you avoid the money-tight situation after the celebration, i.e. during your honeymoon. Keep in mind that you will probably have to exchange currencies at the destination so do your homework and prepare for the travel.
