Vacations With Flair

Considering Destination Micro Weddings

Destination micro weddings present a chance for couples to extend their celebration over several days.

2020 has definitely caused most of us to reshape and rethink our definition of the perfect wedding.  Instead of postponing or canceling, couples are now planning micro weddings.  Here are 5 good reasons you should be considering destination micro weddings.

Couples looking to create a memorable wedding celebration should consider a destination micro wedding. Why? Because diminishing the group size should not mean diminishing the celebrations or memories.

Destination micro weddings extend the celebration

Celebrating and experiencing joy is now more important now than ever.  As we deal with the necessary restrictions and cancelations brought on by covid, we’ve been forced to give up many special events.  But, this is your wedding and it deserves celebrating! Instead of having a traditional wedding party that lasts  just a few hours, why not extend it to last a few days?   Choosing a destination micro wedding allows you to extend the celebration with your important people for  3-7 days.

Destination micro weddings create memories

Relaxing in paradise has an effect on people. Instead of going the traditional route of packing everything into one long intense day, destination weddings allow for a more relaxed schedule with extended time to celebrate.  It’s the ideal set-up for guaranteed bonding experiences, even if guest haven’t previously met.  Consider scheduling a private local tour or a boat trip just for your group.  Spend your wedding day relaxing pool side with your guests.  Banish stress and embrace the moments that a great resort vacation can offer.

Resorts are the perfect place to social distance

Resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean are having to keep guest capacity under 30% which means that you will have a whole lot of room to spread out and avoid people.  Staff are required to wear masks and sanitize surfaces round the clock.  

Destination micro weddings are easy to plan

The smaller size of a micro wedding gives you the advantage of time.  Beach weddings take minimal time to plan, as they involve less decisions.  While traditional large weddings take an average of 12 -18 months to plan, a smaller resort wedding could easily be planned in a month or two which allows you to lock in the low flight rates offered right now.

Choosing the right resort is key, so we suggest using an expert.  Each resort is different, but the perfect one will already include alot of those details you consider important so you aren’t having to pay extra.  For example, don’t settle for a resort that doesn’t include top shelf liquor if that’s a noticeable detail to you.  Resorts tend to cater to wedding groups and your planning expert should be able to recommend the perfect one for you.  

Traditional expectations are evolving

One of the most unexpected benefits this year has brought about is a general overall loosening of wedding expectations.  As a result, weddings have evolved into fully personalized experiences.  Couples have more choices these days in terms of celebrations and events.  Bigger is not always better.  Now is the time to go for what you will most enjoy versus what is most expected.  Take advantage of the unique freedom and plan what will make you happiest.
