Wedding Packages
Whether you are choosing to get married at home or abroad, wedding packages are becoming an increasingly popular choice when it comes to organising and choosing a wedding. Firstly it means that you know exactly how much you will be spending and there for can budget a little better with no sudden extra charges popping up for things that have been forgotten or overlooked.
Secondly, it takes a lot of the stress out of the planning of your wedding day because there are not separate things to be organised as everything you are paying for comes under one lump sum.
What’s included?
Usually when people are planning their wedding, they have to organise everything separately, from the venue of the ceremony to the venue of the reception, (usually different locations), and then they have to organise caterers, flowers, decorations, transport and photographers on top of organising dresses, rings and suits for the relevant people included in the wedding. With a package wedding, with exception to the dress, suit and rings, most of the wedding is included in a bulk deal.
Whether the wedding is abroad or in the UK, the all-inclusive wedding deal seems to be a popular option. Tailor made wedding bargain for foreign destinations are readily available from many travel agents specialising in weddings abroad and are increasingly popular as it means you get your honeymoon and wedding in an “all inclusive honeymoon”. This works out considerably less expensive than if you were to get married in the UK alone, that’s without booking a ‘holiday of a lifetime’ that will be your honeymoon.
Even if you choose to get married in the UK, wedding packages at locations such as Gretna Green are available if you want to get married and pay for everything in one go with all the organisation done for you. Basic packages start from £489, which includes venue, photography, paperwork, and arranging the minister or registrar. The most popular deal at Gretna Green is £1390 and includes the bridal suite for two nights, a wedding car, photography, a Scottish piper, same day album service, your witnesses if you have not brought your own, paperwork, and arranging the minister or registrar. Also included is a meeting with your wedding co-ordinator before the wedding and and full assistance on the big day so that everything runs smoothly leaving you to sit back and enjoy the day. There are lots of ways you can tailor make your wedding bargain. You can upgrade your photography package, change your wedding car to a horse and carriage, add wedding flowers, add a wedding DVD, add white doves, add a wedding cake, add kilt hire, add a second wedding car or upgrade the car to a thirteen seater limousine.
Wedding packages and all inclusive honeymoons
Wedding packages abroad are a fantastic option for getting married. They usually include the venue, drinks, canapés, the wedding cake, flowers, choir, the minister or registrar, transport (if necessary) and of course you are in a fantastic location and so there is no travelling to your honeymoon destination. Many people choose the option of a beach wedding under a beautifully decorated bamboo canopy.
Other wedding packages in the UK
Some people who choose to get married at home and who want a bulk wedding deal will choose to get married in one of the other many companies’ venues.
Some of these are the Leez Priory in England, Gosfield Hall in Essex, Clearwater castle in Gloucester and St Audries Park in Somerset. All of these places and the many more available in the UK vary in prices and again you can tailor it to your own individual needs and preferences to make your wedding a perfect day.
When you are planning your wedding abroad, make sure that you have the appropriate legal documents with you both before you travel and with you for the day. The company that you arrange your wedding with should let you know about all relevant legal requirements and documentation that you need to bring when you enquire and purchase the package. If they don’t it is always best to double check.
So, whether you are choosing to get married at home or abroad, wedding packages should be an option to be considered due to the stress it takes out of the organisation.
