Pinnacle Worldwide's Top 10 tips to ensure the perfect Wedding Abroad.
Follow our guide for a stress-free Wedding Abroad.
- Planning a wedding can be stressful – but at Pinnacle we see our job as ensuring stree-free perfection. From booking to the ceremony and everything in between. Pinnacle Worldwide's Top 10 tips to make sure your big day is smooth sailing.
- Book early to ensure your favourite choice of wedding date and location. Some destinations can only be reached on certain days due to airplane schedules, so you may need to be flexible.
- Remember you can get married abroad for free. Ask one of our expert Weddings Abroad and Honeymoon team to fill you in.
- Not all destinations have year-round good weather so check you’re booking for the best time of year. If it is sunny, go easy on the sunbathing – you don’t want to look burnt in your wedding photos!
- Check your passport is valid and apply for required visas as soon as you can. Passports should usually be valid for at least six months after you leave your destination, but double check when booking.
- Make sure your travel insurance policy covers the value of your wedding and rings.
- Remember to request your choice of wedding extras in advance. And make friends with the hotel’s wedding coordinator – they’ll be more likely to meet any unusual requests.
- Buy a wedding dress in a cool, natural fabric and a light-coloured suit in cotton or linen for the groom. Hang your dress in a steamy bathroom when you arrive to minimise creases.
- Pack original copies of your required documents – you can’t get married without them. If you’re divorced, make sure you have your decree absolute and all court papers before you book your wedding. Some countries will also require your previous marriage certificate.
- Arrange to video the wedding. This is the best way to appease family and friends who have been left at home.
- Expect a simple ceremony. It will be quick and informal. Most registrars are happy to include an appropriate reading that is special to you.
