4. Family fusion
Some couples get caught in the middle of tense family feuds about whether the wedding should be held in the bride’s or groom’s home town. Hang on, whose wedding is this? To relieve this type of pressure, choose somewhere else entirely. Selecting a neutral location that both families have to travel to might just be the perfect remedy.
5. Modest moolah
Most Australian venues specialising in destination weddings offer competitive packages that include group discounts for accommodation. That, combined with the benefits of skipping international flights (bye bye, jet-lag) means that now is a great time to look at marrying in one of Australia's stunning regions. If you're travelling to Asia or the South Pacific, expect to find a dazzling array of dreamy venues and generous wedding packages with inclusions ranging from bridal bouquets to luxe honeymoon accommodation. Ultimately though, it's often the smaller guest list, limited to close family and friends, that results in the greatest savings. It’s also a good idea to seek out venues that offer seasonal discounts or accommodation savings for large groups, wherever you decide to get married.
