You may not be familiar with the term “destination wedding,” but they are gaining in popularity around the world. For many couples, their dream of having a destination wedding began many years ago, and they would not have their wedding any other way. You may be wondering – what is a destination wedding and why has it become so popular over time?
A destination wedding is simply a wedding where you need to travel to another location, typically a place that is far away from your current city. There are some that don’t believe a destination wedding needs to be far away to qualify as a destination wedding. However, most couples probably wouldn’t be happy with planning a “destination wedding” when the location is merely a 2-3 hours drive away. To qualify as a true destination wedding, usually the bride and groom travels to a place that is often special to them, perhaps where memories were previously made, or has a specific feature (such as a beach or a historical landmark), and it usually involves a decent amount of travel away from home, usually involving air travel.
