We are sure that this question already crossed your mind and your guests.  One of the biggest question is, who pays for what at a destination wedding.  But you are in luck.  We will give you a simple guide to find exactly who should pay for what….let’s keep on reading to see the break down.  Keep in mind, it is the same rule as if you are having your wedding in your hometown.
•The Couple- Couples maybe paying the wedding, however parents may pay or pitch in.  Traditionally rehearsal dinners are paid for by the couple or parents may also share the expense.  This also goes with the venue and other expenses such as flowers, cake, and the vendor.  You are not obligated to pay for guests’ rooms and travel.  In order to help out, we can assist the couple getting group rates.  If you decide to host a pre-wedding/welcome dinner at destination, you are expected to shoulder the cost.
•Excursions and other activities- It is in good taste to at least pay for one activity. You are responsible for organizing activities, however, if an activity is optional, then any guests that would like to participate will pay on their own.  If you can afford it, it is a nice gesture to pay at least for daily breakfast.
•Your Valued Guests-  Since your guests are already spending for travel, it is only common courtesy to not expect gifts.  A token is absolutely appreciated.  Your guests will pay for their travel, lodging and incidentals, food, shopping, and any optional activities. Included with the list are their attires, make up and accessories   For guests, do not invite someone else without notifying the couple and their approval. 
•Your Valued Vendors- If you are flying any vendors, it is expected that the couple will pay for their travel and meals.

    Hello there and congratulations on your engagement!

    The passion all started with helping out a coworker plan a wedding.  There was no Pinterest or Instagram for inspiration but in the process, I had the satisfaction of seeing the couple enjoyed their special moment and from there my desire got stronger to help busy couples turn their destination wedding vision and honeymoon into reality and worry free.
    I am the owner of Elegant Wedding Designs, I  worked as a Logistics Manager for more than twenty years.  This is where I learned the value of customer service, executing deliverable correctly and on time.
    I enjoy being married to my best friend.  We both enjoy traveling and creating shared experiences.  I also enjoys painting, cooking and swimming.
    My superpower is being a good communicator and finds it easy to relate to other people which allows me to provide the highest quality service possible.
