Experience Destination Weddings

A few weeks ago I was personally invited as a Premier Event Producer to attend a Celebrate Romance Media Event put on by Destination Weddings & Honeymoons Magazine. The event was at the legendary Beverly Hills Hotel and Susan Moynihan, Editor in Chief of Destination Weddings & Honeymoons, hosted a lively panel discussion with industry experts on the state of the romance market. As I mix and mingle with some of the world's top hotels, resort and romantic destinations,which many of them I have had the pleasure of doing business with.
The evening ended with cocktails, fabulous hors d'oeuvres served by the top notch staff at the Beverly Hills Hotel and lastly my favorite wedding cake (Red Velvet) by NancyKay's Confections. The Destination Wedding Cake was six layers and alternated between Red Velvet & Limoncello Lemon . Moist and Brilliant Red Velvet Cake Layered with Vanilla Bean Cream Cheese Frosting Filling and Limoncello Lemon Zest Cake Layered with Lemon Curd Fromage Filling. Simply Delicious. My evening cocktail was The Jet Setter. The prefect refreshing drink for your destination wedding.

Welcome to the Experience of Your Dreams
The ultimate wedding awaits you. It's a day you have fantasized about with all your girlfriends. Could you have ever imagined? A Destination Wedding. It's all about the Experience you create . An unforgettable celebration that is everything you've dreamt it would be.
Check Out My 5 Reasons Why Every Bride-to-Be should consider a Destination Wedding
1. It's Not As Expensive As You Might Think
Destination Wedding are a cost effective way to trim your budget. Majority of the savings comes from scaling back on your guest list. You are creating an experience for those that are truly close to you. Your guest list should include those who are near & dear to you. Having fewer attendees means you get to spend quality time with each of them and you & your fiance' will appreciate the experience even more.
2. The Experience
Having a Wedding Planner who is experienced in handling all the details of your Destination Wedding is crucial. It takes all the pressure off the Bride,Groom and your family. An Experienced Destination Wedding Planner will have relationships with venue locations and know all the rules that apply for that particular destination. Once you have selected your planner a production meeting is set with all those involved to discuss a theme that represents not only the two of you, but also ties in your surroundings.
3. Guests Enjoy a Discounted Vacation

With a destination experience, all of your guests stay at the same location, making it easier to coordinate memorable gathering & transportation for all your scheduled activities prior to the wedding day. Everyone gets to have fun & enjoy the experience you are creating. Keyword Experience not an Event! Who would not love that?
4. You're Forced To Relax
Nothing is more important than to let go of the control and allow the professionals to handle everything . Something serene happens when you travel away. It's always about being pampered and just enjoying the time away from home. Whether you travel an hour away or thousands of miles away. Destination Weddings give you the best of both worlds. Between all the activities you have planned you & your guests can enjoy the beautiful surroundings of your chosen destination.
5. Welcome to the Experience of Your Dreams
Inviting those who are nearest and dearest to you at this most important moment in your life. You have not just created a Special Day, but a guaranteed Experience your guests will treasure more than just a one day event.
Where Should I Experience the details???
Just a few destinations favorites of mine: Oahu-Hawaii, Maui-Hawaii, Costa Rica, Venice-Italy, Santa Barbara, Napa Valley, Riviera Maya-Mexico , Figi and Antigua.
A location I desire and dream to go to in the very near future: Dubai... visit the pristine waters of the Arabian Gulf which stands as the worlds one and only 7- Star Hotel, Burj Al Arab. Its unique architectural design, that resemble a billowing sail, makes it Dubai's number one landmark, and a world famous iconic structure that represents the spirit of Dubai. What a dream I have over and over in my head. Good things always come to those who wait patiently.
