Nowadays, destination weddings are big business, with a growing number of exotic & romantic locations, themed invitations & favors & a wonderful range of designer wedding dresses, something not available to me in 2001! If the idea of a destination wedding is your idea of wedding heaven then there are a few things you need to take into consideration. A destination wedding is a wonderful way to get married & offers you the opportunity to have as much or as little input as you want. They are also a good option if your budget is tight as the savings are significant when compared to a traditional wedding at home.
