The best part of a destination wedding is that it brings your favorite people together in a locale that offers excitement for everyone involved. If guests will be traveling long hours to celebrate with you, one way to show your appreciation is to plan a memorable pre-wedding activity for the group.
“It’s good to include other hosted events in your wedding weekend because a lot of people are spending a lot of money to come to your wedding,” says event planner Alison Laesser-Keck. “If you’re going to ask guests to hop on a plane, you want them to come away from the experience feeling immersed in the local culture.” Aoife Owens of White Elephant Resorts agrees, saying, “Scheduled activities are a great way to showcase the destination the couple has chosen.”
