“Right as we started looking for a location/destination, one of the YouTubers that I watch had recently gotten married at the same exact church next to Burgenstock Resort,” Chloe says, “We saw the wedding, and fell in love with it instantly so we immediately reached out to Burgenstock two years in advance.”

Getting ahead of what your destination wedding gue Getting ahead of what your destination wedding guests wonder about sets everyone up to arrive feeling prepared and ready to celebrate YOU! 

Here’s a look at the questions guests ask most, and how to make sure the answers are waiting for them. ➡️

Insights by @ofdconsulting @julianribinikstudios @robertsandco @keithwillard @kgeventsdesign @destinationweddings.com_ @peachperfectwed @valentinaweddingsandevents @chandaievents @bambino_international @angelikajohns @jetsettingwithmichele

Guests shouldn’t have to guess what the couple is providing versus what they’ll be on the hook for.

“Guests want to know what the trip is actually going to cost them once you add up flights, hotel, ground transportation, and time off work.” - @julianribinikstudios 

Packing for a multi-day destination wedding is a puzzle, and few things create more stress than not knowing what to wear.

“Because it is a destination wedding, guests tend to let their imaginations run wild. Some immediately picture beachwear or Hawaiian shirts, so setting expectations early helps everyone feel more comfortable and prepared.” - @keithwillard 

Getting around an unfamiliar destination is one of the most common sources of stress for wedding guests, and it starts the moment they land.

 “Beyond the venue details, knowing and understanding the available transportation arrangements to and from airports and hotels can cause a lot of stress for guests.” - @robertsandco 

“The couples who design the weekend like a guest experience, instead of solving it like a logistics problem, end up with weddings that their guests bring up for years afterward.” - @jetsettingwithmichele

5 Common Wedding Fails (& How to Avoid Them) 📲 G 5 Common Wedding Fails (& How to Avoid Them) 

📲 Guests snapping their own photos on cell phones can be distracting, and it can ruin the professional photos you’ve paid so much to get. Have a sign at the entrance of your ceremony, and ask your officiant to kindly remind them not bring them out. 

😅 The shoulder “scrunch” an escort has to do to fit a three-person processional line into a narrow aisle doesn’t look great in photos. On top of that, it creates a tripping hazard. Make sure the chairs are set up so you have enough room for movement.

😘 Officiants get caught in the first kiss photos all too often, but many don’t know to step out of the way for the photo op. Kindly ask them to do so and rehearse it if necessary. 

🔈 Believe it or not, your guests want to hear what your officiant and you as the couple have to say during the ceremony. Be sure you have a mic and speakers to amplify voices, especially for an outdoor ceremony.

🥵 If your wedding location is known for unpredictable storms, or particularly warm or cold weather, it’s worth it to provide guests with simple comforts. That way, they can fully focus on celebrating you! 

While you can’t foresee every potential wedding fail, the best thing you can do to stress less is hire an experienced planner! They’re worth every penny (or nickel, I guess.)

Starting out as a long-distance couple, Adriana an Starting out as a long-distance couple, Adriana and Chris made travel their preferred way to meet. That’s why, when they began planning their wedding, jet-setting seemed the best way to celebrate their union. The Caribbean, a destination the couple was familiar with from past vacations (the first vacation they ever took as a couple was to several islands there), seemed the best option. 

An Anguilla destination wedding, specifically, won them over for its combination of amazing food and gorgeous, quiet beaches.

With the perfect short-term rental home secured on With the perfect short-term rental home secured on North Carolina's Outer Banks, Madison and Robyn felt confident in their decision to have a destination wedding near Robyn's original hometown. 

Because Robyn is a corporate event planner, the couple initially intended to spearhead the logistics themselves and simply lean on a coordinator for day-of support. However, they quickly realized they were a bit in over their heads...

“It was about three to four months before we realized how wrong we were, and thankfully, Ashley was able to step up and help,” Robyn says, “Looking back, our biggest regret was not having hired her as our full-time planner from Day One.”
