My name is Clara Bennet and I’m a destination wedding planner. I love what I do because it brings together my two great passions: ceremonies and travel. But beyond getting to know so many incredible places, it also let me be the quiet, neutral witness to the most important moment in the lives of hundreds of people. And that’s what I want to write about today.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned in these six years, it’s that planning a wedding and planning a trip have a lot in common. At their core, both are the first step in turning a dream into reality, which makes them as exciting as they are overwhelming.
So I decided to put together a few tips to help you if you’re planning a destination wedding. From choosing the place and setting up the wedding room blocks that give guests a clear place to stay, to advice on how not to overspend, these are some of the most important lessons I’ve picked up over the years.
Destination Wedding: 5 Ways to Make it Possible

1. Choose a place people can realistically reach
It’s so easy to fall for the destination before you think about the journey. But I could tell you about plenty of weddings in gorgeous places where guests showed up exhausted. If only I could show you those faces in the first day’s photos!
That’s why, before you decide, I’d suggest you really think about how reachable it is: the flight, the connections, the transfer from the airport. Getting married in the Florida Keys or Las Vegas, with an airport close by and direct flights from half the country, is not the same as a villa tucked away in Tuscany. They’re all valid choices, but it’s worth making that choice with your eyes open. And when a place is hard to reach, it really helps to have everyone in one spot near the venue, so the trip feels easy the moment they land.

Your wedding day should be one of the most joyful days of your life – for you, your guests, and yes, even the youngest attendees. But keeping children happy, safe and entertained during a long wedding celebration is no small feat. That is where professional childcare comes in.
Hey Kiddo provides experienced, vetted nannies for weddings across Sweden, helping couples and their guests enjoy every moment of the day without worry. Whether the ceremony runs long, dinner stretches into the evening or the dancing goes on until midnight, our nannies are there from start to finish.
Why Professional Childcare Makes Your Wedding Day Better for Everyone

Better for parents, better for children
Parents who bring their children to a wedding often spend the day torn between enjoying the celebration and keeping an eye on tired, restless kids. With a dedicated nanny on site, that tension disappears. Parents can be fully present at the table, on the dance floor and in the moments that matter – knowing their children are in safe, caring hands.
For the children themselves, having a professional nanny means structure, attention and age-appropriate activities throughout the day. Nannies come prepared with games, crafts and stories, and know how to read the room when little ones need to wind down. A good nanny turns what could be a long and overwhelming day for a child into a genuinely fun experience.

Today we are celebrating spring with this gorgeous spring time wedding that took place in Gloucestershire a couple of years ago.. Lily and Luc wanted a relaxed day, that was child friendly and full of fun and that’s what they got in bucket loads. They filled their day with lots of lovely DIY details that gave a really personal feel to the day. From the flowers to the cake everything looks super cute and full of charm. The sun shone and the guests enjoyed a gorgeous outdoor drinks reception that was followed by a dress change for Lily, then a big old party celebration with the most fun looking band. Olive & Wilde Photo + Film was there to capture the day for us.
The best day that reflected our personalities. Fun relaxed and full of sunshine.
Lily and Luc were married on 25th May 2024 at Holy Trinity Church, Badgeworth in Gloucestershire at the Field at the end of the lane. ‘My grandparents live in Badgeworth village, and my parents, aunties and uncles were all married in the church. My Grandad is also buried there. He was a church warden and the church was very special to him. We ha 100 guests and it took a year to plan.’

Wedding planning comes with a lot of joy. However, it also comes with plenty of decisions that feel bigger than they probably should. From the moment you get engaged, the questions start piling up, and it doesn’t take long before what was supposed to be an exciting process becomes overwhelming.
Decision fatigue is a common complaint couples have during the planning process, and it makes sense. You’re making dozens of choices while navigating guest opinions, budget realities, and the pressure to get everything right. Here’s a look at the decisions couples tend to stress about most, and some practical ways to make them easier.
Wedding Decisions Couples Stress About Most (And How to Make Them Easier)

Blowing their budget
Budget conversations aren’t the most glamorous part of wedding planning, but they’re one of the most important ones to have early. Couples sometimes go into the process with a rough number in mind, only to find that costs add up faster than expected.
Emily Reno, Owner of Elopement Las Vegas, notes, “Weddings can become overwhelming very quickly when couples are making emotional decisions without having a clear understanding of the overall financial picture from the beginning. One of the best ways to make that easier is to create a realistic and detailed budget early on in the process, before booking vendors or committing to a venue.”
Break your overall budget into categories, decide what matters most to you both, and allocate accordingly. You may end up spending more in one area and less in another, and that’s okay. What matters is that you’re making intentional choices rather than reactive ones.

Interviewing countless vendors
There’s a certain point in your research where every vendor’s website blurs into the next. Couples are pressured to meet with as many people as possible before making a decision, worried that saying yes too soon means missing someone better.
“If you find a vendor you love, you are not required to continue the search just for the sake of comparison shopping,” reminds Kelley Nudo, Client Relations & Operations Director at Momental Designs. “Couples inundating themselves with information from a wide variety of vendors can unknowingly create a stressful situation when tasked with comparing similar options.”
In reality, you don’t need to interview everyone. Start by narrowing your shortlist based on style, reviews, and budget, then meet with a small handful you’re genuinely excited about. When you find someone whose work you love and who you enjoy talking to, trust that feeling.

Your honeymoon deserves more than a sun lounger and a swim-up bar. It deserves something that feels genuinely, unmistakably once-in-a-lifetime — a backdrop as extraordinary as the occasion itself. For couples who want that, the luxury safari honeymoon has become one of the most sought-after choices in the world of high-end travel, and it is not difficult to understand why.
Africa has a particular kind of romance. It is not the manufactured kind — candlelit dinners in hotel ballrooms or roses on a turndown pillow — though the finest safari camps offer those things too. It is something wilder and quieter: the romance of complete immersion, of watching the sun dissolve into the horizon over an endless plain, of lying awake at night listening to sounds that no other place on earth produces. There is nothing quite like it for two people beginning a life together.
Why a Luxury Safari Honeymoon Should Be at the Top of Your List

Privacy as the Ultimate Luxury
One of the most compelling reasons to choose a luxury safari honeymoon is the level of privacy it affords. The best safari properties in Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia are small by design — often no more than six to eight suites, set deep within private conservancies where no other camps operate. Some can be booked exclusively for a single couple, placing an entire camp — guides, chefs, vehicles, and staff — entirely at your disposal.
This is a world away from a busy resort. There are no neighbouring sunbeds, no crowded restaurants, no background noise of a large hotel. There is the bush, and there is the two of you.
Suites at the finest properties are designed with couples firmly in mind: private plunge pools facing the waterhole, open-air showers beneath the stars, expansive outdoor decks with uninterrupted views across the floodplains. Every element of the physical space reinforces a sense of seclusion that is genuinely hard to find elsewhere.
