Planning the perfect date for a destination wedding starts well in advance.

Keep in mind
Any time you travel around major holidays expect the rates to be almost triple what you would normally pay during other times of the year. If you don’t have the flexibility of going any time of the year, then I recommend booking at least 18 months prior to lock in your wedding date and secure the lower room rates. You can always add air once it’s available, still know it will be higher than normal.
Now that you have a possible date in mind, there are 4 ways to get started – check out my destination wedding planning guide. My last blog post explains why you’ll want to decide on the guest list, the destination, the budget and have a good idea of your wedding plans before talking with an expert.
When you’re ready, I would love to chat with you about your dream destination wedding, book a call today!
