DESTINATION WEDDINGS ~ Not just for the rich and famous. - CELEBRATIONS BY THE SEA blog at BridesClub.com

More and more of today’s modern couples are ditching the trappings of the traditional wedding and all the debt that comes with it. Creating instead an exciting unique ceremony and honeymoon all rolled into one at a beautiful destination of their choice.
Not only is this more fun and a lot less stress, in many ways it can even be more cost effective. What used to take months and months of planning and worry, meetings and research can now be simplified by contacting a Destination Wedding Service such as www.beachweddings101.com. The Professionals that provide this type of service have years of experience in working within their particular locale and will be able to give you the best referrals for everything you need like choosing the perfect location, where to stay, where to dine and may even have all-inclusive packages that include the basics such as someone to perform your ceremony, flowers and photography.
This is not your grandmother’s wedding coordinator. You know the one…you pay her to suggest you should rent the $5000.00 ballroom and invite 400 people, and all her other out dated expensive ideas. Instead these Destination Ceremony Professionals listen to what YOU want then assist you in creating an event that is about YOU the couple in the setting you have always dreamed of.
Whether a wedding, an anniversary reaffirmation, a family blending or a commitment ceremony, more often than not a “destination” event will take place outdoors such as a stunning beach at sunset. (This eliminates that stuffy ballroom!!!) To be followed by a celebration dinner at a local restaurant to enjoy the regional cuisine or in the event of a beach wedding, have a bonfire/picnic and continue your celebration right there to take full advantage of your time at the coast! This will be such a happy memory that will be cherished by everyone for years to come.
For the sake of etiquette ~ Guests attending are responsible for their own expenses as this will be a vacation they will enjoy. The couple should let the invited guests know well in advance of the plans so they can be prepared. Your Destination Professional can assist you in providing these guests with accommodation referrals etc..
Note that destination celebrations are usually under 50 people and sometimes only involve the couple themselves. An informal party/reception can be held at a later date when the couple is ‘back home’ to allow family and friends who didn‘t attend the actual ceremony to congratulate and share their stunning wedding photos and/or video.
