Don’ ts
• Don’ t sweat the small stuff. Things may go wrong with a hometown wedding or destination wedding. Make sure to keep all in perspective and enjoy the process every step of the way.
• Don’ t underestimate the temperature.
• Don’ t wait the last minute to send your invitations, you need additional lead time when planning a destination wedding. Guests should get least 6 months notice so they can book their accommodation.
• Don’ t spend a lot on ceremony flowers. One of the main reasons to have a destination wedding besides the built in vacation is the beautiful scenery. Many couples choose to have an outdoor ceremony in which case there is little needed for elaborate floral arrangements. If you are in a place where the ceremony is by the ocean, anything you put there is just fighting nature.
