Choose the Right Location: Select a destination that aligns with your wedding vision, considering guest accessibility, legal requirements, and climate.
Plan Early: Send save-the-dates 6-12 months in advance and formal invitations 3-6 months before the wedding to allow guests to plan their travel.
Hire a Local Wedding Planner: A planner with local expertise will handle logistics, find trusted vendors, and ensure everything runs smoothly.
Budget for Travel and Accommodation: Account for travel expenses, hotel costs, and additional services, and be transparent with guests about the costs involved.
Capture the Moment: Hire a local photographer familiar with the area to capture stunning memories, and consider pre-wedding or engagement shoots to make the most of the destination.
