Destination Wedding Etiquette

First, you need to give your potential guests plenty of notice so that they can make travel and. vacation arrangements. Send out "save the date" notes at least 5-6 months before the wedding.

Contact the airlines and hotels to see if you can get group discounts, for your guests and how far in advance you need to make these kinds of reservations. You will need to tell your guests the cost, and dates as soon as possible and give them a deadline, for payment.

Usually the bride and groom pay for pay for both sets of parents and the maid of honor and the best man You will want to welcome your guests when they arrive at the airport, or have the best man di that for you. Many hotels will send a bus to pick up the guests. Print a wedding itinerary and give a copy to each guest as they arrive .Include a map of the area and list, any times that you and the groom want to be alone.

Since most destination weddings are smaller than local affairs consider having a local reception, a week or two after you get home This way people who couldn’t attend the destination wedding, can help you celebrate closer to home. Send out these invitations at the same time you send out the wedding invites., so that nobody will feel left out. The cards should resemble the original invitations in design and wording. When you order favors for the wedding order enough to get enough to cover this party too.You will save on shipping and keep everyone happy.

An important etiquette rule that doesn’t change depending on the type of wedding and that is sending out thank you notes. This should be done no later than 30 days after you return. from your wedding trip. Destination wedding etiquette is based on common courtesy.
