When I was first starting to plan our wedding in 2016 I was shocked at the lack of resources there were for brides planning a destination wedding.
I had a million questions. How am I supposed to pick between hundreds of resorts? Are these pictures really as nice as they seem or could I be ripped off? What if someone in my family has never left the country before? Needless to say, I pulled off the wedding of our dreams, but it was more difficult than I anticipated.

I'm here to answer the many questions behind destination wedding etiquette, how to travel with your wedding dress, and everything in between.
