My fiancée and I have been engaged almost a year now. Neither of us really want to have a wedding but have thought about maybe doing a destination wedding with 10-20 close friends/family instead kind of thing. We’ve also thought about just doing a backyard party type thing (undecided still 🤷🏻♀️)
Those who have done a destination wedding, where did you go? How was it? If you’re comfortable, what was price like compared to doing it here? Did you go through a company and book like an all inclusive type or? Did you find it was cheaper than doing it near home?
I want to start planning something, but obviously want to weigh options and all that first.

We did a destination wedding. Originally it was meant to be Florida keys but ended up in Miami due to works at our hotel which was better. We did it with Virgin (.would not recomend!) at a time where bank transfers and the internet were still fairly new and fb didn’t exist so had to pay all the extras in cash which was a nightmare. Didn’t do a videographer which I regret especially as my parents taped over their video with gators.
We did a party back home at a Hampton court yacht club near bonfire night.
