The Ultimate Wedding Package

By Eric Hassler | February 21, 2017

Interested in a lakeside resort with numerous activities, food and beverages and amenities for the entire weekend to house all of your family and friends? The Ultimate Wedding Package by Basin Harbor Club & Resort in Lake Champlain, Vermont, is an amazing deal to accommodate your family and friends and to ensure a memorable experience for you and your guests.

Basin Harbor has 149 accommodations that can sleep up to 275 guests, while keeping everyone within walking distance of each other. The two-night minimum stay package has the special weekend entirely planned for you.

After checking in on Friday, you can gather your wedding party for the rehearsal followed by a private cocktail cruise aboard a 48-passenger cruise boat. Afterward, you can join the rest of your guests for a lakeside rehearsal dinner and a welcome party after dinner. While getting cozy with your loved ones, you can enjoy classic lawn games and a crackling bonfire.

Helping you find your peace of mind on your wedding day, you can enjoy a private yoga class on Saturday morning, followed by a buffet overlooking the lake. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, you can enjoy the 700-acre property by kayaking, fishing, biking, paddling or canoeing.

While you’re out enjoying yourself, the ceremony and reception are complete with live violin music, bouquets, floral centerpieces, a four-hour unlimited premium bar and a live band to reflect your musical taste. Dinner will be served with the wedding cake of your choice and topped off with a fireworks show!

As your magical weekend comes to an end on Sunday, enjoy a jazz brunch with live music, mimosa bar and freshly baked pastries. As a gift to the newlyweds, Basin Harbor offers a complimentary night to celebrate your first anniversary.

With a minimum of 125 room reservations, The Ultimate Wedding Package rates start at $208,000 USD. If interested in planning your wedding in good company of all your friends and family, visit basinharbor.com to view everything this package has to offer.

Both artists and enthusiasts of all things “Ital Both artists and enthusiasts of all things “Italy,” Aubrie and Russell had no hesitation about where they’d celebrate the beginning of their marriage. Initially, the couple had open minds about their Tuscany wedding venue. However, Borgo Stomennano (which dates back one thousand years and once hosted the famous Italian poet, Dante Alighieri) quickly won out over the rest. “Dante says he was so struck by the site of the powerful towers of the nearby town Monteriggioni, emerging from the mist that he decided to mention them in the Divine Comedy,” Russell says.

Is it ever okay to “fire” someone from your we Is it ever okay to “fire” someone from your wedding party? We consulted Conflict Resolution expert @damalipeterman to get her thoughts. She says yes, BUT… 1 - When you are selecting your wedding party, do not expect those who have acted poorly at weddings in the past to be different just because it’s YOUR wedding. You’ll want to be extra careful to protect your peace on your wedding day! 2 - Try to mitigate conflict or issues by giving each person in your party a job to focus on. This way, there is less opportunity for toes to be stepped on. Listen to the full episode on DESTINATION I DO, THE PODCAST by following the link in our bio or searching on your fav podcast platform! (P.s. We’re on YouTube too!) Do you agree with Damali? 🤔 📸 @jameephotography
In the small residential community on Florida’s In the small residential community on Florida’s Gasparilla Island, a long tradition has been held. On the eve of a wedding happening on the island, brides are given a bottle of gin to hang upside down in a tree, which is rumored to provide clear skies on the couple’s wedding day in Boca Grande.

As a people pleaser, it was so hard to say “no” to requests for plus ones at our destination wedding. So, here are five thoughtful response examples to kindly deny someone a plus one to your wedding: “Due to limited space, we can only accommodate our invited guests.” “We’re aiming for a more intimate gathering, so we’re keeping the guest list tight.” “Unfortunately, due to our budget constraints, we can only invite the people on the list.” “We’ve made the decision to keep the guest list focused on family and close friends to make it a more personal celebration.” “Unfortunately, we can’t accommodate an extra guest. We’ve had to make some tough decisions about our guest list due to venue limitations.” Additionally, it may be wise to express your enthusiasm to have them in attendance with something like - “I hope you understand. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!” Obviously, you’ll want to customize these responses to fit your speech/texting style, but they can act as inspiration. Share this post with a people-pleaser friends who’s planning a wedding. They’ll thank you, trust me! 😉
