You\u2019ll find inspiration for every type of <\/span>getaway<\/span>, from tropical beaches to mountain retreats and adventurous locales.<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

Destination Wedding Ideas<\/b>: Your Starting Checklist<\/b><\/h2>\n

We know you\u2019re excited to start turning <\/span>your destination wedding ideas<\/span> into reality. Here are some must-have elements to help you create a magical <\/span>wedding ceremony<\/span> and reception.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hire a <\/b>Wedding Planner<\/b><\/h3>\n

When you\u2019re<\/span> planning a <\/strong>destination wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in a faraway location, you can\u2019t just drop by the <\/span>wedding venue<\/span> to discuss options or pop into the local flower shop. To make <\/span>your destination wedding<\/span> an easier endeavor, hiring an expert is the way to go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wedding planning<\/span> is an art, especially when you add in complications like exotic locations, large <\/span>guest lists<\/span>, or complex <\/span>wedding packages<\/span>. With a <\/span>wedding planner<\/span> in charge of your <\/span>nuptials<\/span>, you\u2019re free to get excited about the details \u2014 without worrying about the logistics, negotiations, and setup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A <\/span>wedding planner<\/span> who\u2019s located in your destination of choice is a great way to make sure you get the best out of your decision to marry abroad. They\u2019ll be able to speak the local language, know the best vendors, and offer practical support that you can\u2019t manage from a distance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make It a Group Vacation<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Destination<\/p>\n

You\u2019re flying all the way out there for your wedding, so why not transition the event into a group <\/span>getaway<\/span> as well? Surround yourself with your <\/span>loved ones<\/span> for a wedding weekend, week, or even longer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spend the days after your wedding exploring the local attractions, embracing the great outdoors, or simply relaxing by the beach. Rent a villa for everyone to stay in together, or block rooms or suites at your favorite resort.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This might not be an option if your <\/span>guest list<\/span> is large or your budget is on the smaller side, but you can still give your guests some suggestions of great all-<\/span>inclusive resorts<\/span> in your<\/span> online invitations<\/a><\/strong> if they want to stay a little longer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Embrace the Local Culture<\/b><\/h3>\n

Whether you\u2019re jetting off across the world or heading to a different part of your own country, each <\/span>destination wedding location<\/span> has its own unique local culture. While you\u2019re there, it makes sense to experience as much of it as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ask your <\/span>wedding planner<\/span>, friends, family members, or local guides for their best ideas on how to spend your leisure time. They might suggest a great fishing spot, somewhere gorgeous to take family photos, or the perfect authentic restaurant for your <\/span>rehearsal dinner<\/span>. Bring some of the local culture, atmosphere, and food to your wedding too with a menu inspired by delicious local favorites, traditional live music, and lively party games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Get Creative With Your Wedding Attire<\/b><\/h3>\n

Every <\/span>destination wedding<\/span> is different, but something that many have in common is that they\u2019re often more <\/span>laid-back<\/span> events. While you can go ultra-luxe or sophisticated and formal, many <\/span>destination weddings<\/span> take place by the pool, on the beach, or with a beautiful mountain backdrop \u2014 calling for more creative wedding attire.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s your <\/span>wedding day<\/span>, so wear whatever makes you feel the most comfortable. That might be a flowing white wedding dress or a casual, colorful jumpsuit. Think about what you\u2019d love to look back on in your wedding photos and bring them to life through your creative clothing choices, stunning backdrops, or fun prop ideas from your<\/span> wedding photographer<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Planning on a wedding locale that\u2019s more adventurous, but still want the glamor shots during the ceremony? Consider more practical attire to access the location and then do an outfit change once you get there. This works well if you\u2019re saying \u201c<\/span>I do\u201d<\/span> at the top of a mountain after a hike.<\/span><\/p>\n

Create Personalized Welcome Gifts<\/b><\/h3>\n

People often travel long distances for <\/span>destination weddings<\/span> because they\u2019re thrilled to spend your special day with you. Help them settle in and feel comfortable with thoughtful, personalized welcome gifts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Work with your <\/span>wedding planner<\/span> to source gift ideas, or see if it\u2019s something your resort hotel offers as part of a <\/span>wedding package<\/span>. Think about the kinds of things that would be useful for guests. For example, if you\u2019re having a <\/span>beach wedding<\/span>, you could provide guests with a goodie bag featuring a pair of flip-flops,<\/span> beach towel<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, SPF, and lip balm. Create an extra special welcome gift for your <\/span>wedding party<\/span> too \u2014 after all, they\u2019re playing a key role in your ceremony and reception.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

11 Drop-Dead Gorgeous <\/b>Destination Wedding Locations<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"Destination<\/p>\n

Destination weddings<\/span> are all about celebrating your <\/span>big day<\/span> in a stunning location, surrounded by the ones you love or simply with each other. The <\/span>destination wedding location<\/span> you end up choosing will depend on your tastes, budget, availability, and what style of wedding you\u2019re going for. To help you create a shortlist of <\/span>destination wedding ideas<\/span>, here are some of our favorite cities and locations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We love the idea of sending themed<\/span> destination wedding<\/strong> invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a> to your nearest and dearest. It\u2019s a fun way to let them know what to expect ahead of the <\/span>big day<\/span>. To inspire you, we\u2019ve included invitation inspiration for each of our featured locations.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. <\/b>Jamaica<\/b>, the <\/b>Caribbean<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Destination
Design: Jen Montgomery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There are many reasons <\/span>Jamaica<\/span> is one of our <\/span>top destination wedding ideas<\/span>. The <\/span>Caribbean island<\/span> is filled with <\/span>beautiful beaches<\/span> brimming with clear, turquoise water and <\/span>white sand<\/span>, plus you\u2019re never far from mountains. Other <\/span>Caribbean<\/span> destination locations to consider include the <\/span>Dominican Republic<\/span>, Barbados, and the Bahamas.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to combine <\/span>your destination wedding<\/span> with some thrill-seeking, <\/span>Jamaica<\/span> is a great place to do it. The island is known for its outdoor fun, with activities like horseback riding and snorkeling, giving you plenty of ways to spend the days after your <\/span>dream wedding ceremony<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Add local flair to your <\/span>big day<\/span> by serving classic foods like jerk chicken and curried goat or spin up some reggae tunes to set the mood during the dance hour. Set the scene for the destination affair with a<\/span>\u00a0tropical invite<\/strong><\/span><\/a> featuring gold and red accents.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. <\/b>Cancun<\/b>, <\/b>Mexico<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Destination
Design: Signature Greenvelope<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cancun<\/span> is an ideal <\/span>destination wedding location<\/span> if you simply can\u2019t choose between a bustling city location and a beachside ceremony. The city offers plenty to choose from when it comes to nightlife and eateries, as well as stunning beaches and resorts outside your doorstep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While the area does experience a rainy season in the fall, <\/span>Cancun<\/span> is known for its generally stable climate. You probably won\u2019t need to worry about rain on your <\/span>wedding day<\/span> or spending your reception getting cold by the oceanfront. Instead, you can enjoy the beautiful views from wherever you host your <\/span>big day<\/span> \u2014 whether that\u2019s at your resort by the pool, down on the beach, or in a city hotspot.<\/span><\/p>\n

For other popular <\/span>Mexican<\/span> wedding destinations, head south to <\/span>Playa del Carmen<\/span> or <\/span>Tulum<\/span> in the <\/span>Riviera Maya<\/span> or opt for the <\/span>Pacific<\/span> Coast where you\u2019ll find options including <\/span>Cabo San Lucas<\/span> and Sayulita.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We love the idea of using this<\/span> Mexican<\/strong>-inspired invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> for <\/span>your<\/span> destination wedding in <\/strong>Mexico<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. There\u2019s something so beautiful about the combination of colors and floral elements that make this design ideal for both casual and more formal ceremonies.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. <\/b>Napa<\/b> Valley, <\/b>California<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Destination
Design: Signature Greenvelope<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Napa<\/span> Valley is among the most <\/span>popular destination wedding locations<\/span> in the U.S. for a good reason. This top winemaking region is home to gorgeous vineyards and stunning views that offer you the perfect backdrop for your outdoor wedding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a foodie and love wine, hosting <\/span>your destination wedding<\/span> here makes perfect sense. For a quieter and more relaxed atmosphere, opt for early summer \u2014 or consider combining your trip with the chance to immerse yourself in the local scene by heading to a festival, <\/span>golf course<\/span>, or vineyard tour.<\/span><\/p>\n

This<\/span> Spanish Vineyards Invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> couldn\u2019t be any more of a perfect match if you\u2019re heading to the Spanish-inspired <\/span>Napa<\/span> Valley region, the stunning fields and vineyards of Spain itself, or any wine country. The watercolor illustrations work with warm colors to evoke the cozy atmosphere of Spanish villas and <\/span>wineries<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. <\/b>Maui<\/b>, <\/b>Hawaii<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Destination
Design: National Park Foundation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Maui<\/span> remains a <\/span>popular destination wedding location<\/span>, thanks to the island\u2019s generous hospitality, jaw-dropping <\/span>natural beauty<\/span>, and relaxed approach to celebrations. If you want a <\/span>laid-back<\/span> and breezy yet cozy <\/span>destination wedding<\/span>, a<\/span>\u00a0Maui wedding<\/a><\/strong> could be perfect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing more beautiful than a stunning sunset by the water on this Hawaiian island, and the food is spectacular too. Opt for freshly caught seafood, ribs, tacos, and other local dishes for a delicious culinary experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Guests will be saying yes to your invite when you choose a design like this<\/span> sunset-inspired one<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Featuring a Hawaiian coastline dazzled by sunset rays, it\u2019s a surefire way to create a magical introduction to <\/span>your destination wedding<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Rome, <\/b>Italy<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Sorrento
Design: Signature Greenvelope<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Rome is the perfect place to host your <\/span>Italian<\/span> destination wedding<\/span> if you love the idea of a city break. One of our favorite <\/span>destination wedding ideas<\/span> is to use your Rome ceremony or <\/span>elopement<\/span> as the first stop on a honeymoon tour of European cities, taking in the culture as you travel across the continent. Or you can pop down to the <\/span>Mediterranean<\/span> to hop on a cruise of the Greek islands.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are lots of stunning <\/span>fairytale<\/span> wedding venues<\/span> in Rome. You could book a historic building with plenty of eye-catching decor, or go for something simple with a minimalist ceremony at a countryside villa. After the wedding, there\u2019s no end to amazing cultural sights for you and your <\/span>loved ones<\/span> to explore in the city \u2014 like the Colosseum, Sistine Chapel, and Pantheon.<\/span><\/p>\n

To invite guests, choose a design like the<\/span> Sorrento Tile Invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> with blue and gold tones that are inspired by Southern <\/span>Italy<\/span>. The gorgeous script font and romantic details are ideal for a sophisticated <\/span>destination wedding<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Telluride Ski Resort<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Foil
Design: Stacey Meacham Design, LLC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Located in the stunning mountains of <\/span>Colorado<\/span>, Telluride is a <\/span>world-class<\/span> ski town right out of a European storybook. Nestled in the valley beneath towering peaks, the town has a <\/span>laid-back<\/span> vibe with plenty of bars and eateries to explore before and after your <\/span>nuptials<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan the ceremony at the Telluride Ski Resort where you\u2019ll swap vows in front of a gorgeous mountain backdrop. Make it more fun and adventurous by skiing down afterward in your wedding garb. It\u2019s the perfect idea for couples who love <\/span>winter<\/span> and doing things a little differently, on their own <\/span>terms<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

This<\/span> wintry invite<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is the perfect fit for icy royalty who want to exchange vows in a frozen landscape. Frosted pine boughs glitter with metallic foil accents in simple color schemes for a modern look.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. <\/b>France<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Amelie
Design: Inspired by Luly Yang<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What\u2019s more magical than a wedding in a castle in <\/span>Europe<\/span>? <\/span>France<\/span> is home to more than<\/span> 45,000 castles<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, hundreds of which you can get married in. From quaint countryside manors to elegant centuries-old castles once inhabited by royalty, there\u2019s a <\/span>wedding venue<\/span> for just about any budget. Plus, it\u2019s easy to find <\/span>boutique hotels<\/span> for <\/span>wedding guests<\/span> to stay nearby if the castle can\u2019t accommodate everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n

Incorporate local <\/span>French<\/span> culture into your ceremony by choosing a traditional cake known as a<\/span>\u00a0croquembouche<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Featuring a tower of choux puff pastry balls drizzled with crispy threads of caramel, it\u2019s a delightful treat and a unique way to celebrate.<\/span><\/p>\n

An intricate invite like<\/span> this one<\/strong><\/span><\/a> featuring lace and satin accents pays homage to the <\/span>French<\/span> culture of couture and offers a preview of an elegant ceremony. With glimmering accents, it\u2019s perfect for castle weddings and <\/span>nuptials<\/span> with <\/span>French<\/span>-inspired accents.<\/span><\/p>\n

8. <\/b>Bali<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Tropical
Design: Becky Nimoy Stationery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of the <\/span>best destination wedding locations<\/span>, <\/span>Bali<\/span> is the perfect place to exchange vows. With beautiful <\/span>sand beaches<\/span> and great weather <\/span>year-round<\/span>, it\u2019s the perfect backdrop for<\/span> beach weddings<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beachfront<\/span> accommodations are fairly affordable and you\u2019ll have no problem finding large houses that can accommodate most of your guests on the same property. You can also book <\/span>luxurious resorts<\/span> with <\/span>on-site<\/span> caterers<\/span> and <\/span>wedding planners<\/span> to handle everything for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want a few alternatives in the region, consider saying \u201c<\/span>I do<\/span>\u201d in <\/span>Thailand<\/span> or hop over to Malaysia where you\u2019ll find plenty of <\/span>beach wedding<\/span> locations with fewer crowds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Want to feature one of your beautiful engagement photos on your wedding invites? If so, this<\/span> tropical frame invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is ideal \u2014 especially if you\u2019re heading off to an exotic island to tie <\/span>the knot<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

9. <\/b>Costa Rica<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Tropical
Design: Lissa Anglin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Costa Rica<\/span> has it all, whether you want to tie <\/span>the knot<\/span> in the cloud forests of Monteverde, in front of a volcano in Arenal, or along the beaches of Puerto Viejo. In addition to stunning backdrops, you\u2019ll find affordable accommodations and high-end resorts to fit any budget.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Best of all, extending your stay and making it your honeymoon is as easy as pie. Head down to Pavones to catch the longest left wave, tour the Costa Ballena to see toucans, and be adventurous by taking a rafting trip on the Pacuare River.<\/span><\/p>\n

Invite guests to <\/span>your destination wedding<\/span> with this<\/span> tropical invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. With bold colors reminiscent of a toucan and vibrant flowers, it\u2019s the perfect way to set the tone for a cheerful celebration in a tropical locale.<\/span><\/p>\n

10. <\/b>Ireland<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Painted
Design: Kid Collective<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Love the idea of saying \u201c<\/span>I do<\/span>\u201d on an emerald green isle? Pick <\/span>Ireland<\/span> as <\/span>your destination wedding location<\/span>. Keep in mind though that all of that green comes at a price: lots of rain. Best for couples that consider rain on their <\/span>wedding day<\/span> a good thing, you\u2019ll want to be sure you have contingency plans for the weather.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan on getting hitched in an Irish manor or schedule the <\/span>nuptials<\/span> in an enchanted garden with tents to protect against the elements. Consider incorporating Irish wedding traditions like a <\/span>handfasting ceremony<\/a><\/strong> to pay tribute to the local culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Get guests excited for the <\/span>big day<\/span> with a design like the<\/span> Painted Grove Invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Featuring a whimsical painting of the green countryside, it imparts magical vibes (just like the beauty of <\/span>Ireland<\/span>!).<\/span><\/p>\n

11. A <\/b>National Park<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Soaring
Design: National Park Foundation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Most <\/span>National Parks<\/span> allow people to get married, giving couples the opportunity to say \u201c<\/span>I do<\/span>\u201d and get incredible photos in front of icons like Half Dome. To<\/span> plan a National Park<\/strong> wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, be sure to visit the park’s website to see what types of permits and permissions you need to get beforehand.<\/span><\/p>\n

Top <\/span>national parks<\/span> to consider for your <\/span>nuptials<\/span> include Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Acadia. You can also consider some less touristy options like national monuments and<\/span> less visited <\/strong>national parks<\/strong><\/span><\/a> like the <\/span>National Park<\/span> of <\/span>American<\/span> Samoa and Kobuk Valley <\/span>National Park<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Celebrating somewhere magical in a national forest, beneath towering trees? This<\/span> soaring sequoias invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> couldn\u2019t be any more perfect. We love the rich tones and gorgeous illustrations on this sumptuous design.<\/span><\/p>\n
