A Guide To Planning A Wedding Abroad

Destinations & Honeymoons· Weddings

25 Jun

Getting married is one of the most exciting times in anyone’s life, but the planning stage can be slightly daunting especially if you’ve opted to get married abroad. With extensive planning and preparation beforehand, tying the knot in one of the world’s most beautiful destinations can be a breeze, plus you can tailor it to your tastes and personalities with ease. There are several elements to think about when planning nuptials overseas from the legalities to checking the weather for your chosen location. To make your day go without a hitch, check out this handy guide to making this special occasion one to remember for all the right reasons.

Choose the destination

This is one of the most critical factors for your wedding abroad, as looking where you might like to hold the big day will determine what time of year will be ideal for the perfect weather. It’s best to check elements such as if there is an unusually hot spell or rainy season which could both mean disaster for your day.

Think about your guests

Sharing your special day with your nearest and dearest is one of the best moments of your wedding day, but sometimes traveling abroad might not suit everyone. To accommodate your guests, booking rentals in your chosen spot is a great way to bring everyone together. Why not check out the latest vacation rental news to see what type of property you could hire for your big day.

Check the legalities

There are different laws in different countries regarding marriages so checking what you need to have before you go will ensure everything is in order for the big day. You will also be required to check what documentation you need when you return so that your home country recognizes the marriage in local law.

Get insurance

Weddings can be expensive especially if you are traveling abroad, so ensuring you are covered in the event of an emergency can help to alleviate stress. This type of insurance will provide cover for elements such as missing wedding dresses, issues with the venue and unavoidable weather issues that could ruin the day.

Try to visit the venue before booking

To get a good feel for a destination, it is always best to try and visit the location before you decide to get married there. There’s only so much a brochure can show you, so visiting the area and getting a feel what might work for your big day will help you get prepared for hiring suppliers, finding the perfect venue and getting the right accommodation for your guests.

Hire a wedding planner

Local knowledge is invaluable so hiring a wedding planner who knows the area and suppliers will be a great help when planning from afar. Find a professional that is able to understand your requirements and help you build a beautiful day without any added stress.

Planning ahead and doing your research will help to give you a memorable day with all your family and friends. Although weddings can be stressful, you need to remain calm and cool. Ask for help if it becomes too much; your friends and family are there to help you.
