A Caribbean Wedding – Let’s start at the beginning, whose coming with you!

Once you’ve decided to have your Caribbean wedding, you need to understand that many of your guests will not be able to attend and that’s ok!

The key to ensuring those you do really need to join you know well enough in advance that that they can plan.

Weddings are typically planned 1-2 years ahead of the day when doing the traditional hometown weddings. A destination wedding can be cut short of that because you have many more options available to you. As the wedding tends to lean towards a smaller guest list and less needs due to the remote location.

That being said a “save the date” card identifying simply it’s a destination wedding needs to be sent as soon as possible. This will allow your invitees the chance to make the decision to join you or not.

Even if you don’t know the location or the details share the date and you can use a save the date card. This can depict a beach scene to set the stage, that it will be somewhere tropical and more details will follow.  The date is what is key.

There are many different options of save the date cards for a tropical setting from traditional to fun that you can choose to set the stage for your big day.

A couple ideas:

A beach scene background

Flip flops and a beach umbrella

A palm tree

An engagement photo cropped onto a beach

A bamboo card

A postcard

A message in a bottle

A suitcase tag

Passport

There are unlimited options, imagination but simplicity is the idea.

Once you have determined the location, a resort and found out more information then you can create the invitation. Therefore, giving your invitees all the details, they need to fully commit.

Invitations

Your invitation you can follow the same theme or send a traditional wedding invite outlining all the details of your big day. Where will it be. What’s the cost for your guests to join you and you can also outline their attire if you have requests.  RSVPs should be highlighted as urgent so you can gauge the size of your wedding party. This will allow you to communicate it with your wedding planner at your destination.

Your wedding planner will guide you through all the steps to ensure your day is very special.
