“The biggest trend around destination weddings is not following trends. Firstly, there is no formal order about events anymore. For example, we see couples preferring to host a welcome party on Day 1. These are theme based events that set the tone of the celebrations ahead. This is then followed by a small haldi ceremony.”Day 2

“There was a time when the ceremony would be lined up for the last day, ending with a reception. Now, we see a shift. Day 2 is now the Big Day. Evenings are reserved for a glamorous sangeet.”Day 3
“The last day we are seeing couples wanting to let loose and have a good time with a vibrant yet lazy pool party plus some games. A glamorous wedding reception then concludes the celebration.”A Pre-Wedding Trip
“Another huge shift is planning a pre-wedding trip in the host country for the guests. For a recent wedding we planned in Bodrum, the guests from across the world first arrived to Istanbul for a two-day sightseeing tour. They then made their way to the wedding and ended with a cruise.”For more information, contact: Destination Snobwww.DestinationSnob.comInstagram: @DestinationSnob
