Destination wedding?

Amber, on October 26, 2021 at 6:38 PM Posted in Planning 2 4

I've seen a few discussion boards about destinations weddings but they are all from 4+ years ago. We are thinking of going to Jamaica for an all inclusive "weddingmoon" and inviting 10-20 family and friends to join. Have any of you had experience with these - either as a guest or the bride? I would love to hear your thoughts/ experiences and any pro's/ con's besides the obvious.


btw- we plan for it to be about a hear and a half out from now but want to start planning soon. Thanks in advance!!

    We're doing a weddingmoon but it's more of an elopemoon! We're going to Greece for 2 weeks and eloping on day 5 Smiley smile


    I have no advice for Jamaica but I think it sounds wonderful!

    That sounds really fun Amber!!

    I think the biggest considerations for your guests will be the cost and the length of the trip! I'd also make sure to host something for your guests while you're there (a nice dinner at least!)

    We just had our destination wedding in Spain! 2+ years of planning, 3 different dates and a lot of uncertainty and waiting but we finally pulled it off and it was amazing, more than I could have imagined. I would say destination weddings are 100% worth it and a gift you give to your selves and your guests that you will truly never forget. Feel free to DM me if you have any specific questions!
