Destination weddings have always been super popular, however I am seeing more and more people choosing to tie the knot abroad these days! Traveling for your wedding can give you so many amazing options, you could go anywhere in the world. How will a destination wedding affect your planning experience? Use these tips to enjoy every moment and plan the day of your dreams without too much stress.

1. Give Yourself More Time
Couples book destination weddings because the locations are either gorgeous getaways or famous spots for romantic moments. Either way, you’re not alone in your love for your potential wedding venue. Other couples are also likely eyeing it, so give yourself at least six months to a year to plan everything.
You’ll have more luck securing your preferred date by booking it well in advance. Your guests will also appreciate more time to schedule their big trip to your wedding between calendar events like holidays, school events and vacations they already committed to.
2. Set a Realistic Budget
Weddings always have custom price tags depending on factors like your guest list, venue and what type of wedding you want. A low-key backyard gathering with your closest friends will be more budget-friendly than a destination wedding at a famous venue with 500 attendees.
Consider these details to set a realistic budget. The average 2022 destination wedding cost $35,600 for domestic and international ceremonies, so prepare for a bigger budget. If you dedicate the most significant chunk of your budget to your venue, you can get creative to reduce other expenses like decor or thank-you gifts. Remember that you can always take on part-time jobs to help with your wedding’s budget. You can work from your own cargo van or car to deliver packages, write articles on the side, or even take on a part-time virtual assistant job.
As you plan your dream destination wedding, understanding your budget and exploring financing options is essential. For those concerned about their credit history, wedding loans for people with bad credit can provide a solution to ensure your big day is as magical as you’ve envisioned.”

Today I have a real treat for you as I share this simply stunning ‘Boho meets Indian’ wedding inspiration. The shoot took place in May 2022 at Hayne House, Kent and it is a great example that weddings can look totally stunning while staying sustainable. The shoot has a strong emphasis on sustainability, while keeping the vibrant colours and opulence that an Indian wedding brings with it. The colours are gorgeous, the decoration is beautiful, the whole styling is on point! Big thanks to Nick Rutter Photography for the stunning photos.
Sustainability is becoming a big part of peoples lives. Now to Vow wanted to reflect this with the modern Indian and interfaith couple in mind to make a Boho meets Indian vibe and styling. The Bohindian styled shoot was born.

Happy Friday everyone! Wow I can’t believe we are at the latter part of the week already! I was off on Monday for Dexter’s birthday, so it’s been a short week for me! We all had a wonderful weekend in London and this weekend we have Dexter’s birthday party, so more celebrations! Today I am bringing you the woodland wedding of Apolonia and Eric who were married on 19th August at Black River Falls, in Wisconsin. ‘Surrounded by tall pines, tiki torches & live music, Appy + Eric’s bohemian style wedding in the woodsy tree grove was surreal! From Appy’s wildflower bouquet, to her flower crown & reception table centrepieces every single detail was absolutely stunning!!’ Just a few words from Narrowleaf Love + Adventure Photography who were kind enough to send me in this delightful wedding.

Planning a wedding can be an overwhelming experience, especially if you’re looking at holding a destination wedding. There are so many amazing locations to choose from, today we are looking at Weddings in Dubai.
For couples who choose this stunning city as their wedding destination, there are several steps they need to take to ensure their special day is as perfect as possible. This afternoons post will provide practical advice on planning the wedding of your dreams in Dubai. From setting a budget and finding the right venue for the ceremony, through to choosing vendors and suppliers and crafting your special occasion, this guide will provide all the information necessary for having an unforgettable dream wedding in Dubai.
Setting Your Wedding Budget
A good wedding requires a budget. Budgeting and spending constraints should start early. Venue rental, cuisine, music, decorations, and photos must be considered. It’s also wise to save some money for ceremony preparation surprises.
Wedding planners may use these budgetary suggestions. First, determine a budget based on what you can afford, not what you want. Second, shop about and bargain to acquire great services at affordable pricing.
Spending wisely throughout preparations might reduce stress on the big day. Knowing how much money is available will help things go well and enable everyone to enjoy the wedding without financial worries.
