Enjoy an out of town trip, picturesque locales and great food. You and your guests can look forward to all these when you opt for a destination wedding in Austin. Here are a few essential planning tips to make sure everything goes perfect for D-day:
Plan early
If you scout around too close to your dates, you might end up with less than stellar options—or worse—no single vacancy in the church or reception venue you want at all. Don’t want to deal with these problems? Plan early, says Traveling Mom.
Pick a great spot
If there are plenty of stunning venues in the area, pick one that offers you a good spot to hold the ceremony and reception at. A two-in-one venue can give you plenty of cost-savings in terms of venue and transportation expenses. It also means you won’t have to worry about guests getting lost on their way to the reception venue which means less stress for you.
Find a reception venue
There must be enough room to accommodate you and your wedding party. It must also have exceptionally fantastic views – especially if you want your wedding photos to be as memorable as possible.
Go for a package
A lot of wedding packages can give you the destination wedding in Austin that you’ve set your heart on. By opting for a package, you can get the wedding of your dreams without draining your bank account dry.
Research about the license
Make sure you apply for a marriage license as soon as you get to Austin. Factor in requirements as well. Some venues might require you to submit the license 24 hours before the ceremony. Check so you know which local conditions and rules will apply to make sure your wedding will go off without a hitch.
