The Tough decisions about Wedding

 Wedding is one of those important thing in ones life which oh so important that generally you will go all out to have wedding that almost perfect in manner. That said generally the first thing that comes to my mind regarding the wedding is that you need to select a location as to where you will need to have he wedding and that in itself is the most toughest decision.

 

This hub I hope will help you make a decision one or the other. I am not a preacher for either the destination weddings or the at home or the back yard weddings. The main factors which influence the decision for these can be factored in as tow main things and these things are


Time is Of essence for weding planning

 If you have a wedding which about a year or even about nine months away then you can easily plan for a destination wedding. But if the time in question is less than six months then plan for a wedding which is in your town as it is always easier to get things done at hand as opposed to planning things remotely.

 

Budget – It all depends on the wedding budget that you have and in case you have a limited budget then you can easily do a small wedding in your home town itself. Then again the other factors that is linked with the budget is that if you are not inviting many guests and also have a limited budget then you can think of destination wedding. The number of guests that need to be there at the wedding can be a big factor as far as costs of the wedding goes.

Personalities of the bride and the groom

 As they wedding theme reflects the style of the bride as well as the style of the groom. If you are more casual and romantic sort of person who will want to have a wedding which will have a nice sunset in the backdrop and under the open sky then it better to have a destination wedding especially a beach wedding.

 

If you are more formal kind of person and also you dream is to have a wedding which is has some traditional marriage things then the normal backyard wedding or the church wedding would of major help. The reason is simple because of the fact that that at the beach wedding you just cannot wear a formal wedding gown and you will have to wear a more casual thing with knee length dress or a more shorter length gown.

 

Also if the groom and the parents are not comfortable wearing those Hawaiian shirts then your best bet is to have the wedding at the church.

 

Planning for destination wedding

 As far as planning goes either way the wedding planner is the one that will be able to help you out. The wedding planner is the know all resource even in the case of a simple church wedding.

 

 

Do it yourself wedding

 

If you are that budget savvy person who would love to have a wedding that is on a budget then it will probable take more effort to coordinate a wedding which is outside the town. In fact planning long distance is a very tough thing and that again comes back to the same question as to whether you want to have a wedding planner hired.

 

Generally if you are planning a wedding at beach you will get all sorts of wedding planners that will be ready to help you out and work with you over the phone .

 

Invitation to guests

 

If you are planning to invite a large number of guests then the cost of ferrying them as well making them stay at the hotel for a large amount of time at a place will cost you a huge amount of money. The other option will be to cut down the cost will be to reduce the number of guests and that may offend a lot of people.

 

So in the interest of these matters it is always better to have the wedding which is in town. There are no travel arrangements involved and no hotels involved.

 

The places for destination wedding are

 

Caribbean islands

 

Antigua wedding 

Jamaica Wedding

Dominican Republic wedding

St. Lucia

St. John

 

 

As far as the other option is considered which is the non destination wedding then there is the

Backyard weddings

Church weddings

 

So choose carefully as there can be so many things that you will need to be sure of while deciding the wedding location.

I will agree it does take some time to plan and arrange any destination wedding justs it does for one down home. However plannina wedding any wedding in 6 monthis my opinion is more than a challenge unless it an ultra private event and if thatthe case you coudl hen perfoem a destination one also. With the right resources it is possible eg planning a jamaica wedding is easy with http://jamaicaweddings.iblogger.org
