Each couple has a different personality, and their uniqueness dictates the tone, mood and even the location of their wedding. Some couples who want a carefree vibe at their event opt for a destination wedding. "One of the strengths of a destination wedding is that it's a longer celebration, [so there's] more time to enjoy both the resort and the company of loved ones. [Having a destination wedding] is one of the best ways to [gather] everyone in a vacation-- something that is usually hard to do with everyone's differing schedules," says Amanda Iliscupides of The Peacock Garden Luxury Resort and Spa.A number of destination weddings are held in picturesque resorts. If you're thinking of exchanging I dos with your fiancé at a vacation spot, remember that there are several factors you have to consider.
1. SPACE AND ACCOMMODATIONS
Always keep your total number of guests in mind before finalizing a booking with a resort. You should do a proper first-hand survey of the resort to determine if its ceremony and reception areas have ample space to accommodate everyone. Also consider additional spaces that you might require, like a stage for your band, or areas for your catering needs like a mobile bar or a kitchen.
2. PEAK AND LEAN SEASONS
Ask the staff for the resort's peak and lean seasons, as that would help you envision what to expect on your wedding day. If you choose a date within their peak season, remember to inquire about the measures they can take to keep the solemnity and exclusivity of your event.
3. ACCESSIBILITY
Take note of the road leading to the resort when you do your ocular inspection. Also check the possible modes of transportation and routes for detour in case of heavy traffic. Ideally, the resort should have signs that are easy to spot, so that visitors can find the place on their own.
