Are you looking at a Caribbean destination wedding? If you are still examining your options, you might have a few questions. Keep reading on to get some helpful answers.

Question: Why are destination weddings at all-inclusive resorts better?

Answer: They are better because of what is available to you. At a traditional hotel, you are likely to find a banquet room for your wedding and maybe a nice garden, but that is about it. All-inclusive Caribbean resorts provide brides and grooms with more options. It is not uncommon for resorts to give you multiple wedding ceremony and reception locations to choose from. You might be able to choose from a banquet room, chapel, beach, garden, balcony, and more!

Question: Is it easier to plan an all-inclusive destination wedding?

Answer: Yes! When you book a stay at an all-inclusive resort, your stay automatically includes your room or suite, airfare (optional), food, snacks, drinks, tips, some onsite entertainment, and qualifying airport transfers. This one arrangement plans and pays for a good chunk of your trip. Basically, all that is left is the wedding and you should get a wedding planner. As for the cost of that wedding, you might qualify for a free standard wedding ceremony but upgrade packages are available to make your dream day become a reality.

Question: What about my wedding dress?

Answer: It is not uncommon for brides to spend thousands of dollars on their wedding dresses alone. Of course you want to keep yours safe and protected, but how can you do this when traveling thousands of miles? Once you and your luggage (wedding dress included) make it to the Caribbean, it will be safely hung in your all-inclusive resort room. What you might be worried about is the plane ride. It is not uncommon for wedding dresses to go missing or suffer damage when packed in checked luggage. It might be within your best interest, to use your wedding dress as a carry on. In fact, some airlines will hang this on a garment rack for you.

Question: What about wedding decorations?

Answer: This is something you will need to workout with your all-inclusive Caribbean resort. For example, all brides like wedding flowers on their big day. Many all-inclusive Caribbean resorts offer guests a free standard wedding ceremony when they meet the minimum stay requirement. This is just a simple and basic wedding. All resorts to have upgrade packages available to make your big day special. Many of these upgrades include wedding decorations, such as wedding flowers, as well as other extras including wedding songs, wedding photography, and so forth.

Question: What about hair and makeup before the big day?

Answer: It is not uncommon for brides to visit a salon on their big day at home to get their hair and makeup prepped. You should be able to do this at your all-inclusive Caribbean resort too. These are rarely listed as inclusions; therefore, you will need to pay an extra fee. You can contact your resort or your wedding planner to determine the fee ahead of time. The good news, most resorts are home to spas; therefore, you have all the proper accommodations available right at your fingertips. For an extra affordable fee, your all-inclusive resort might provide you with private in-room hair and makeup.

Question: Can I invite guests?

Answer: Yes! If you meet a resort’s requirements for a free standard wedding, you will automatically be provided with a small number of guest passes. Additional guest passes are available as an upgrade. This means not only can you invite guests to your big day, but they don’t have to stay at the same resort. This is great to know if you intend to combine your wedding and honeymoon into one.

Question: Speaking of guests, what about my wedding invitations?

Answer: Your all-inclusive resort will handle many aspects of your destination wedding, but the wedding invitations aren’t one of them. Perhaps this is best because you get complete freedom and control. Whether you decide to print your own invitations at home or order professional invitations, you might want to consider destination wedding invitations. Not only can you opt for a beautiful Caribbean theme, but these types of invitations tend to allow for more room, which is important when explaining all the important information for a destination wedding.

If you want to forego the traditional wedding back home, you may be interested in having a destination wedding in the Caribbean. The Caribbean and destination weddings are literally the perfect fit. You get the warm, sunny, and tropical weather, along with luxury all-inclusive resorts, beautiful beaches, and clear waters. Talk about a picture-perfect special day.

The thing about destination weddings is that they are memorable and once in a lifetime events, but they can be a little nerve-racking to plan. After all, you might live thousands of miles away from your anticipated wedding venue. If you have questions on how the process works (it is normal to have these questions and more), keep reading on to find some helpful answers.

Question: What exactly is a destination wedding travel package?

Answer: Honestly, it just like any other all-inclusive travel package but a wedding is added in. As for the traditional all-inclusive part, your reservation at a resort should take care of your food, drinks, tips, room or suite, airport transfers that qualify, and a lot of different types of onsite entertainment. Once you let the resort know that you are interested in having a destination wedding, the cost of that wedding will be added to your trip, giving you a destination wedding travel package!

Question: How much do all-inclusive wedding packages cost?

Answer: It is difficult to give you an exact cost. You can visit an all-inclusive Caribbean resort website and run a quote check to get the estimated cost of your all-inclusive package that includes your room or suite, airport transfers, entertainment, meals, snacks, and drinks. You will need to contact the resort in question to inquire about their wedding fees. Some resorts do provide you with a free wedding ceremony provided you meet their stay requirements. Upgrades are available for more elegant ceremonies and onsite receptions. However, you are typically responsible for all the fees associated with legalizing a marriage in a foreign country.

Question: What type of all-inclusive resort should I choose for my destination wedding?

Answer: You need to make the decision for yourself. In the Caribbean, you have many great resorts to choose from. Most are luxury in nature, but come with an affordable price tag. Basically, what you are looking for is a resort that does offer onsite weddings and a resort that “speaks to you.” After all, you are looking for that perfect fit in terms of wants, needs, and appearances.

Question:: Do I need to combine my wedding and honeymoon?

Answer: Many brides and grooms combine their Caribbean destination weddings with their honeymoons to save time and eliminate hassle. If you weren’t already aware, all-inclusive resorts are jammed packed full of activities so you won’t be bored for even one second. Moreover, adding your honeymoon to the trip will extend the length of your stay and this might qualify for you for a free standard wedding ceremony or make you eligible for additional discounts.

Question: Do some all-inclusive resorts really offer free weddings?

Answer: Yes, some resorts do offer guests a free standard wedding ceremony. In most cases, you just need to make sure you meet their minimum stay requirements, which might be three or five nights. Even when opting for this free wedding, should it be available, be sure to speak with the resort to get your plans made ahead of time. As stated above, if you don’t want to settle for a standard run of the mill wedding, all resorts should have a list of extra upgrades for an affordable price.

Question: How hard is it to plan a wedding reception for friends and family?

Answer: You should get a wedding planner provided through the resort; therefore, it won’t be too hard to plan your destination wedding, reception and all. On that same note, know that it might be hard to arrange travel for your guests. Give your guests adequate notice so that those on a strict budget are able to save for travel. Moreover, remember your guests will need a passport for travel to and from the United States. It is your decision if you want these guests to stay at the same resort as you. If you would prefer to not run into your parents on your honeymoon, try and get them situated at a nearby hotel or resort. Your resort should provide you with a number of free guest passes for the additional and additional passes should be available for purchase.

Have you always dreamed of having a destination wedding? If so, you might be going back and forth on that destination. After all, there are many great destinations around the world that are perfect for your big day. With that said, you are encouraged to closely examine the Caribbean. Destination wedding are better in the Caribbean and here is why:

The Destinations: Technically, you have lots of great destinations to choose from. The Caribbean is a general term used to describe a group of islands. Two popular choices for destination weddings include Jamaica and the Bahamas, but you have a wide range of other choices as well.

As for making your exact destination choice, it might be hard to decide. The Bahamas, the island of Jamaica, and other destinations have great hotels. Moreover, you will find that the weather is similar throughout the Caribbean. Wherever you choose to have your destination wedding, you will likely be greeted with warm, sunny, and tropical weather. It might be best to examine resorts, wedding venues, and so forth to find that perfect fit and then make your destination decision from there.

All-Inclusive Resorts: The Caribbean is well-known for its great selection of all-inclusive resorts. These resorts are designed to basically have everything you need right on site. Many all-inclusive Caribbean resorts will meet your wedding needs right on site! In fact, some have special travel packages for brides and grooms! Even better yet is the fact that some all-inclusive Caribbean resorts enable guests to get a free standard wedding ceremony when they meet the stay requirement.

Planning destination weddings at an all-inclusive resort has a number of benefits. Most often, you are paired with a wedding planner. This wedding planner can ease the stresses that often come along with destination weddings. After all, you might be planning a wedding from thousands of miles away! You will be able to collaborate with your wedding planner via phone or email to ensure your special day truly is special.

Beach Weddings: Of course you can get married anywhere you’d like. With that said, remember that you are getting married in the beautiful tropical Caribbean. This is the perfect destination for beach weddings. There is no more of a beautiful backdrop than the white sandy beaches and beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean; talk about picture perfect (literally).

As just stated above, you can have your wedding ceremony wherever you’d like. If the beach isn’t your style, check with your resort. Also as mentioned above, many all-inclusive Caribbean resorts have special travel packages for destination weddings. At these resort, you are likely to have a choice as for the location of your ceremony. This might be an in-house chapel, the garden, a banquet room, or along the beach.

Honeymoon and Wedding in One: When it comes to getting married, you not only have the ceremony and wedding reception to plan, but the honeymoon as well. That is another benefit of getting married in the beautiful Caribbean; you can combine your wedding and honeymoon into one. When staying at an all-inclusive Caribbean resort that has a host of onsite eateries, activities, and services for you to choose from (many of which is included in the cost of your stay), you won’t feel as if you are short changing yourself.

Moreover, combining your honeymoon and destination wedding into one trip will help ensure that you meet the resort’s minimum stay requirement for a free standard wedding ceremony. Don’t be turned off by the “standard” part either. All good resorts have affordable upgrade packages available, like should you wish to have a reception onsite as well.

As you can see, there are a host of reasons why destination weddings are just better in the Caribbean. There aren’t many destinations in the world where you are pretty much guaranteed warm, tropical, and sunny weather. Also, where else can you find affordable luxury resorts where you can have your wedding ceremony, reception, and honeymoon all in one trip! If you have yet to decide on a destination for your upcoming wedding, I encourage you to examine all-inclusive Caribbean resorts today; you should like what you see.
