re you entertaining  the idea of a destination
wedding?
rash my dress...WHAT?
I came across a magazine called Caribbean Bride: The Ultimate Caribbean Wedding
Guide.

One of its articles gives 10 reasons to get married in the Caribbean.

  • Before you even get married you already on your honeymoon.
  • You’ll have a golden tan before the ceremony.
  • Your wedding cake is made with rum.
  • You can have a second reception when you get home to show off all over again.
  • Your fiancé’s aunt Esther who always refers to you as chunky bride is not likely to shell
    out a little extra for the trip so she’ll just have to watch the webcast. Darn.
More couples are inquiring about the
latest phenomenon...a new respect
to your wedding gown and the start of
your relationship as a couple.

Yes, after many years I still go to our
main wardrobe as push my wife's
sealed dress out of the way.  Who
would have thought that our daughter
of married last year wouldn't want to
wear it...I guess that magic eight ball
was correct...it is the right for each
bride to buy, wear and store the
dress of her choice.

Brides are now opting to trash that
dress, by getting wet, getting dirty, in
fantastically pictorial ways.  They've
chosen to stun friends and family and
be remembered in a dramatic sense
of commitment to each other an not
to the hopes that the dress will see
another day.

I guess thats why guys just rent!

Why plan a Destination Wedding?

There are many reasons to choose a destination
wedding. Many couples look to a destination
wedding as a way to have a unique and memorable
wedding experience. Often, when looking at a guest
list, many people will have to travel from far away
places or countries. A destination wedding allows
them to travel somewhere exotic and fabulous, where
they can also enjoy a relaxing vacation; as opposed
to asking guests to book a flight and hotel in a less
exciting hometown. Some couples are in love with
the destination, and want to spend the most special
day of their lives in their idea of paradise. More
couples decide upon a destination wedding as they
are from different areas of the country, and do not
want to decide against one hometown for another, so
they opt to go to a location that will, from now on, be
somewhere special to each of them.

Is a destination wedding right for us and our guests?

Are there certain people, such as close family or
friends, without whom you would not have your
wedding? If so, we suggest that you poll these guests
to see if attending your destination wedding is
feasible for them.  Most engaged couples send their
guests an email prior to committing to having a
destination wedding.

As you know, we are in the process of planning our
wedding. We are contemplating having a destination
wedding in a tropical location.

As someone important to us, we want to get your
opinion on whether you could attend, given the
following "ballpark" information:

It could be a 2 or 3 night travel package requiring
either a Friday or a Monday (or both) off from work.
Our projected dates are [ ... ]

  • No shoes required. You can get married barefoot on a beach with the waves hitting
    your ankles.
  • No ones ever heard of the chicken dance.
  • The weather may be too warm to wear your great-grandmother’s astoundingly heavy
    brocade and beaded wedding dress she so wanted you to wear some day, bless her
    heart.
  • There’s no need for a band. The sound of the waves is music to your ears!
  • Celebrities do it.


    No doubt these 10 reasons show that destination weddings offer you an opportunity to
    have a relaxed and unique wedding in a beautiful Caribbean setting.


    And number 11, we also like to go south, therefore offer discounted wedding
    services!  Although we love formal weddings, I love capturing destination weddings.
