Castello Vicchiomaggio, Tuscany, Deborah & Colin

Lindsey & Seth planned their wedding in Cortona, Tuscany from the USA and she said: “embrace the imperfections of the day and focus on what is most important; your love story. Life is going to be imperfect and messy but you now have this amazing person to share the ride with you. Focus on your connection, your family, your future.  Everything else will fall into place.”

Many brides are pretty surprised at the costs of having a wedding abroad. I did a very small survey and, of course it’s based on where you’re choosing to held it or maybe it's just the typical cost. So I thought it would be helpful to past here few interesting feedback I had, from other brides having their wedding abroad, in particular destination wedding to Italy or to the south of Europe.

It’s to check what other couples have or are looking to spend; and maybe if you could let me know how many people, where and if you had any big extras, this post will help others too?

Katka & Pali choose to have their pictures taken at the Castle of Bratislava, it was amazing!

These days, especially in our wedding business forums, many colleagues discusses much about wedding planners. Many brides had had bad experiences, as they had a WP without a good level of her skills, not well organised, not serious enough, without VAT system, without knowledge of suppliers and roles, and so on…

It may happens that you prefer not to cooperate with the category at all, because someone has made trouble at the first opportunity… It is sad to see growing mistrust and discontent for that category, and even worse not see take serious this profession, so useful for couples as for vendors and suppliers.

From my personal experience, I can confirm that despite it’s a good practice to “select” who you’ll work with, my desire to work with WP does not decrease, but rather strengthens.

I’m very happy to show the pictures of these two amazing guys and I’m using this opportunity to write about something you need to know if you’re planning your destination wedding abroad (in Italy in particular) so how does one get their wedding dress to another country?
