8. Weddingmoon
Many couples who have a destination wedding will also tell you that it doubled as their honeymoon spot. Aside from the obvious financial benefits, less time spent in airports and aeroplanes equals more time together and of course, longer holidays!
9. Postcard perfect
Wedding photos are a memory you’ll keep forever, so it would be great to capture precious moments in heavenly places. Azure seas, white sand, turquoise lagoons, manicured lawns, untamed rainforests and sultry sunsets are just some of the stunning, natural backdrops that are hard to beat.
10. Culture vulture
If a meringue-style wedding dress doesn’t really float your boat, and your other half despises stuffy suits, ditch the typical garb and do something different. Why not wear the traditional costume of the country you’re visiting, or wear a sundress with a floral crown or lei and go barefoot for a ceremony on the sand. This advice applies double to the local culture and customs. By incorporating them into your ceremony or reception you can add a unique and quirky twist, such as a coconut blessing and benediction in the Pacific Islands.
