5 reasons to get married abroad

 

Debating a destination wedding? We’ve got you covered. After reading these five reasons, you won’t be able to resist. In 1, 2, I do…

Looking to tie the knot somewhere spectacular? Look no further than a destination wedding! The weather, amazing food, sensational settings, great value for money… what’s not to like?

Here are just five of the reasons why getting married abroad is always a good idea…

1. Weather

Obviously! As Brits, we just cannot guarantee sunshine in the UK, even in the height of summer. So why not take the guess work out of your special day’s forecast and pretty much guarantee sunny climes and balmy temperatures on holiday instead?

2. Traditions, what traditions?

If you’re wanting something a little bit different for your wedding day, and going down the traditional church and ‘big white wedding route’ just isn’t you, why not opt for a destination wedding?

Getting married abroad offers so many different cultural opportunities, so you can turn traditions on their head and do things exactly how you want! Think a more relaxed, personalised ceremony.

3. The unique experiences

Instead of just one day to spend with your loved ones, a destination wedding usually involves a couple of days of celebrating. It brings everyone together to create even more special memories.

Plus, your guests are getting their own little mini holiday out of it too – they might choose to spend extra time in the destination before or after your big day to make even more of the trip!

4. Location, location, location

One of the most obvious reasons to get married abroad are the breathtaking locations. Imagine having your wedding snaps on white sand and in front of dazzling turquoise water? Pretty dreamy, right!

Abroad, you have the chance to choose a unique venue that may not be available back home. The natural beauty and varied scenery can create a magical atmosphere that adds a special touch to your day.

5. It's more affordable than you might think!

A UK wedding can quickly become a very expensive affair, with costs creeping up all the time and extras being added to stretch your budget to its limit. In contrast, a wedding abroad can often be a much more affordable option.

You’ll probably find that you get a much more luxurious experience for the same budget, or that you can trim costs by choosing a simpler affair in a beautiful location.

It’s as simple as that! Let us help turn that dream into reality as you say “I do” with Jet2
