A well informed guest is a happy guest

Destination weddings are still the biggest trend today. As opposed to 150 or 350 guests in your hometown, you take between 40 - 50 people to a gorgeous destination. Places like the US VI, The United States Virgin Islands is a ideal location. So now a bride gets to have Joy Agness Events design her wedding. With nine different looks to choose from and all customizable and for a fraction of the price. So all the guesswork is taken out for her, with flexibility. We understand that the bride wants to make her own decisions and wants to be able to customize it in each one of these packages. She has the ability them up or dress them down.

 

What I have been able to do is articulate different looks, like each one is it's own personality. Each one speaks to a different bride. From the Fiery hot Bride, to the Sophisticated bride, to the beach bride, to the bride who wants to embrace lots of color and for the bride who wants a dreamy wedding.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For destination brides, the planning process is an on-line experience for them, We wish the brides, the planning process to take the time to taste the food and see the venues and be surprised but many brides don't do this. So as a destination Bride, you need to have tremendous confidence that you and your guests will have the experience you hope for, that is important. It is very easy nowadays to fly somewhere.

Weddings don't have to cost a fortune and destination weddings don't have to go to Bora-Bora or an exotic island in the Mediterranean. The whole idea is to take a small group of friends and family to somewhere treasured for a jam packed weekend of fun. Starting with the welcome dinner/lunch. Activities during the day. The Wedding itself and then a brunch the following day. What a way to enjoy and celebrate.

 

For a Bride who is planning a destination wedding. Here are a few things  you might consider to accommodate your guests:

 

Send out your save the dates with a hint of your destination, picture, hotel, address, etc.

 

Then send out your invitations.

 

You can send a confirmation package. This can tell your guests, what to expect, what to wear, how to get there, what time they need to be there, information on the hotel, transportation and other pertinent information.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Prepare a welcome package, to go into guest rooms for when they arrive, This can include an itinerary, reminding  them of where they need to be and where they need to be.

 

Find out if any one has special needs or needs a little more attention. It always shows good on your part, that you are considerate and caring.
