A quick introduction from Shine Travel on Destination Weddings.
A Destination Wedding is when you travel to a special place (usually somewhere hot and sunny) for your wedding. It might be just the two of you (aka 'eloping'), or you might include a group of friends and family. It's an appealing option if you want to do something different, forego the hassles of a large, upscale wedding and include a vacation/honeymoon all in the same week.
The primary reasons that couples choose a Destination Wedding are to save money, avoid the major hassles of family squabbles and planning details, and of course, to have a memorable and unique wedding. Besides a beautiful location, many Destination Weddings are a bargain compared to the cost of hosting a big, expensive event back home.

QUICK FACTS:Destination Weddings have grown in popularity by approximately 400% in the last 10 years and ONE in FOUR couples choose a Destination Wedding !

As noted above, Destination Weddings are steadily on the rise, especially after Covid. Many couples have had to postpone their plans from 2020 and 2021, so bookings for resorts for 2022 and 2023 are selling out fast. Destination Weddings take considerable planning and research, and the best properties will book far in advance of the wedding date, in addition to those who have rebooked. The earlier you begin planning your Destination Wedding, the greater the likelihood you will be able to book the perfect property for you and your guests ... we're here to help you find that ideal destination and resort.
