So, you've decided to take the plunge and have a destination wedding. Congratulations! You've chosen to say "I do" in a beautiful location, surrounded by your closest family and friends. But now comes the hard part - planning the whole shindig. Don't worry; we're here to help you streamline the process and ensure your destination wedding goes off without a hitch.

First things first, make sure you choose a location that speaks to both you and your partner. Whether it's a tropical beach, a charming vineyard, or a bustling city, pick a place that you both love and that reflects your personalities. This will set the tone for the entire event and make it even more special.

Next, keep your guest list small. One of the perks of having a destination wedding is having a more intimate affair with just your closest friends and family. This will not only save you money, but it will also make the whole experience more meaningful for everyone involved.

When it comes to wedding vendors, try to find ones that are local to your destination. This will save you money on travel fees and ensure that they are familiar with the area and can provide you with the best recommendations for your big day.

Regarding gifts, don't ask your attendees to lug their gifts for you through the airport, on the plane, through transports to their hotels, and all the other hassles and annoyances that go along with that. Traveling is stressful enough! Choose a Forget Me Nots Cards video card and digital guestbook package. Direct your guests to the site through invitations and QR code placards throughout your destination wedding venue.

Wedding guests can choose a digital card template or create their own, add audio or video messaging, and attach a monetary gift. Their personal messages and videos filmed during your wedding will be something you can watch repeatedly to remember such an important day.

Instead of lugging back all the gifts your guests bring, which will be a challenging and costly experience, simply cash out by transferring their monetary gifts safely and securely directly to your bank account.

Lastly, don't sweat the small stuff. Remember, this is your wedding day, and it should be a fun and joyous occasion. So if something doesn't go exactly as planned, don't stress. Just roll with the punches and enjoy every moment.

Forget Me Nots Cards video cards and digital guestbooks will relieve some stress from you and your partner, as well as your guests, in a fun, creative, and interactive way. Learn more about Forget Me Nots here.
