Destination weddings are a major trend in the wedding industry. These weddings are personalized, less stressful, romantic, beautiful, and can actually cost less than a traditional wedding. To achieve the perfect destination wedding in the states, the first issue is selecting a location.
Beach weddings are popular, around the globe. But in some areas, they cause a bit of a problem. A wedding party must be photo ready throughout the celebration and ceremony. This means you want a beach wedding where the temperatures are mild. You also need a hotel that offers all the services you need and is experienced in weddings. Hotels in Ocean City Maryland are a perfect example of a great location for a wedding.
The luxury hotels have wedding packages available. The packages are detailed and you know exactly what the costs are before you begin. By using a wedding package, you can set up a honeymoon registry like Plumfund months ahead of the event and allow wedding guests, family and friends to help pay for the expenses in lieu of wedding gifts, showers, and pre-wedding parties.
Honeymoon registry
The Blueprint Registry is one of the leading honeymoon registries in the nation. It is easy to use and it is a free service for the couple getting married and the guests. In days past, couples set-up registries at stores showing guests exactly what gift they would like. Modern couples normally live together for a while before marriage, therefore they are already set-up for housekeeping.
The honeymoon registry allows you to list activities the couple wants to do while on their honeymoon, travel costs, wedding package expenses, special hotel accommodations, and special dinners. The guests can pay for an item, or pay toward it. The bride and groom pay on the site as well and it is the total contribution that allows for the wedding and honeymoon.
