Rather Be – Hot Tip
I recommend thinking of your destination wedding as a whole experience spread across multiple days rather than just the ‘Day-of’.
You have a great opportunity to stretch the celebrations over a few different events, each with an individual vibe. You might want a crazy pizza and pool party, but also a romantic ceremony and elegant fine dining experience. And what about a DJ with a sax or even a karaoke band? Maybe chilled garden party vibes? It might not all squeeze in together, but work perfectly as an itinerary over a few days.
You will also be able to spend far more meaningful time with the people that have travelled to be with you, if you aren’t trying to cram all your interactions into one day.
