Invitations: Your invitation is the first impression you will give your guests, and a preview to your destination wedding. Let your invitation set the tone and unify your special day. Some of your guests may plan their family vacation around your destination wedding. Consider sending a save-the-date as early as possible.
Favors: When selecting your favors keep your destination wedding theme and colors in mind. Try choosing favors that your guests can use during your destination wedding, such as flip flops or disposable wedding cameras. Your gifts should also fit easily into your guests' luggage. It can sometimes be easier to choose gifts that are local to your wedding destination. Flowers, chocolate or local crafts can make great gifts. As an alternative, you can purchase your favors at home and have them shipped directly to your hotel.
Gifts: While some cultures give monetary gifts to the bride and groom, many do not. Guests may find it difficult to travel with a large or fragile wedding gift. Creating a bridal registry can be very helpful, especially if you can collect your gifts after you return. Choose from a number of recognized gift registries.
