My brother’s phrasing was “the more people don’t come, the more fun stuff we can get for the people who do come” and it was a great wedding

Advance notice is important too. Give people more time than usual so they can make arrangements.

We did Jamaica and said anyone can come if they can make it, no hard feelings. Gave everyone a year notice. We had 30 people and it was perfect!

I couldn't go to my sisters Mexico wedding when I was 18 because I was in full time university and paying my mom $600 in rent and she was so mad. Tried to get me to take a loan from the bank

Lost a friend because I couldn't afford to come to her wedding in Italy during our final year of University. Obv not the best person to be friends with in retrospect..

I want to have a destination wedding (that requires a passport) because it automatically eliminates a bunch of people who I would be obligated to invite. No passport? Oh so sorry, well really miss you

We are doing a destination wedding due to the fact that my fiancé has family in brazil and I have family in the US so we want to meet in the middle for the families.

The worst is when it’s clear that they just wanted to shift the cost off of them to the guests, and pre/post wedding events that aren’t hosted (like guests pay per person for rehearsal dinner etc)

I did destination and wanted no one to come 😂 my in laws came though (I love them and they paid themselves) my family didn’t (did not want them there at all and was the reason we did destination)

We told people to think of it as a vaca with a wedding in the middle of it. 11 people came to Italy. No wedding party, no gifts, just love.

I feel like some people have a destination (international) wedding to save money for themselves without realizing the crazy cost for everyone else

We kinda met in the middle. We had our guests pay for 1 night of a 3 night stay so we paid for 2 nights for everyone plus all food & drinks & gave every room $40 Uber gift cards.

Strong agree on the first option! I hate when couples say they are doing destination to save $$, but in reality the guests end up paying the difference

also, if you do have people travel for your wedding make it special and somewhat memorable in a good way. not the time to go cheap cheap on the event
