A Real World Guide to Destination Weddings
What could be more romantic than slipping away and getting married in one of the most gorgeous places in the world? The destination wedding trend is huge and growing.
It's gotten so popular that now there's an entire magazine devoted to the subject, titled, appropriately enough, Destination Weddings.
If you're planning a destination wedding, you and your beau could go alone or it could be a small group.
You're unlikely to get 300 of your friends and family to go along with you to the Caribbean though.
For some people, the idea that they don't have to hassle with all of the formalities and people is the attraction! Further, destination weddings usually cost less than a traditional wedding - plus you get the honeymoon thrown in free.
The all inclusive resorts of the Caribbean have developed complete destination wedding packages.
Couples resorts which have properties throughout the Caribbean and Mexico are leaders in the destination wedding industry.
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico is also a popular destination wedding hotspot.
The Esperanza hotel offers a beachfront wedding pavilion for up to 100 guests and smaller parties can even opt to get married on a yacht.
Italy is probably the most romantic country in the world, and you can't beat it as a destination wedding location.
On the Amalfi coast, the Capri Palace Hotel and Spa looking out over the Bay of Naples, is a great spot for a destination wedding.
If you want to stay in the USA, Hawaii is probably the classiest domestic destination wedding spot.
Hawaii's South Pacific flair and natural beauty make it a great choice.
Finally, you may want to think about getting married on board a cruise ship.
On most lines, you'll have to actually have the legal ceremony in port, but Princess is able to do weddings at sea.
Ask your travel agent to put you through to the cruise line's wedding coordinator for more information.
On land or sea, at home or abroad, every wedding should be romantic and special.
