In general it is a hard topic to really decipher. People have their own views on what the perfect wedding is going to be.Although not everyone will want to go abroad to get married, with the recession in flow as it is, you might save some money in doing so.
Lets have a look at some of the Pros ofweddings abroad. Well if youre thinking about going to the Caribbean there are some immediate pluses.At the start of the list is the weather, you wont be let down by unpredictable weather. The sun will have his hat on and you can be sure of a warm wedding. Another item on this agenda is that sometimes getting married in the tropics is proving to be cheaper than getting married at home in a church, and with so many people out there to help you its become so easy. Getting married at home has so much cost attached to it now that it may be considered a good idea to spend the same amount of money or maybe a little less on going to a luxury location and enjoying your wedding there.
Obviously the best part about it is that you can start your honeymoon straight away, no extra flights because youre already in the perfect location to have a great time. Why get married at home when you can have aluxury holidayfor your wedding.
Now we cant just look at the good parts about this, unfortunately there are some Cons.The first main reason that this might not be a good idea is that some people wont be able to make it to your wedding, they will find it hard to get some time off work and some family members either wont be able to afford it, or they could find travelling hard. Another problem that could reflect the cost for you is that some places have a minimum residency policy.Some countries will ask you to live where you want to have your wedding for a small amount of time, the good thing is you can enjoy the sun for a while longer.
One more problem you might find is that the wedding you have abroad might not be recognised by the church at home, but if you dont mind having a civil ceremony followed by a blessing when you get back you can overcome this pretty easily.
So what is the best decision? Church weddings just happen to be what some people want, and you have some people that just want to go away and have a different type of wedding, all in all it just matters what’s important to you. What is it that you would like to do on your special day, aCaribbean holidayin the place of your dreams, or at the church where you know you will have all of your family and friends to be with you?
