The All-Inclusive Promise
Destination wedding packages are designed to make planning simple — one price, one planner, one unforgettable event. But not all packages are created equal. Knowing what’s included (and what isn’t) can save you stress, time, and money.
What’s Usually Included
Most resort or venue packages abroad cover:
– Venue hire and ceremony setup
– On-site wedding coordinator
– Décor and floral arrangements
– Basic photography and cake
– Champagne toast and reception dinner
– Legal or symbolic ceremony coordination
Many hotels also include a complimentary room upgrade, spa treatments, or private dinner for the couple — a great perk for those staying multiple nights.
What’s Often Not Included
– Flights and transfers
– UK-based documentation (e.g., notarised translations)
– Premium décor, entertainment, or bespoke menus
– Extra photography hours or drone footage
– Hair, make-up, and pre-wedding events (like rehearsal dinners)
Tip: Always ask for an itemised list before booking — and confirm if taxes or service fees are included in the quoted price.
How to Compare Packages
When comparing two venues:
– Look at per-guest cost rather than headline price.
– Ask if you can customise décor or menus.
– Confirm whether there’s a minimum stay requirement for you or guests.
– Check if legal fees are handled by the venue or external planners.
