Could You Take Your Wedding Abroad?



Thinking of getting married abroad? Having a wedding in another country can have its advantages – you could combine it with your honeymoon. 
It’s also certain to be a memorable occasion for all. That said, getting married abroad does take a lot of planning. Here are some factors to 
consider when getting married abroad.
Consider your guests

Getting married abroad means you may not be able to invite all your friends and family. Paying for them all to come out will be very expensive.  
You could get them to pay for their own travel, but it’s unlikely they’ll all be willing to fork money out of their own pocket to come along, especially 
if you’re travelling to another continent. Think carefully about who you bring and choose a suitable venue. You could get married in a hotel, giving 
your guests somewhere convenient to stay. This could be a hotel near an airport such as Residence Inn Montreal Airport. Help your guests when 
it comes to travel and accommodation – making it an easy process for them will encourage them to come.

Compare the currency

You’ll be dealing with another currency when booking the venue, catering and other aspects of the wedding. Make sure to compare currency 
transfer rates so that you’re getting a good deal. You may want to transfer all your money into cash rather than using card and having to deal with 
multiple transfer fees.

Take into account the weather

If you’re travelling to a country with a climate that’s different to what you’re used to, it could be worth taking this into account, especially if you’re 
planning an outdoor wedding. It could determine the type of dress you wear, how you do your hair and what you wear on your feet. For 
example, for a tropical beach wedding, you probably want a light dress that doesn’t trail on the floor and sandals, plus hairstyle that won’t blow in 
the wind. This might be completely different for a wedding in Lapland.

Decide how to transport your dress

If you’re taking your dress with you, you may have to pay extra luggage fees. That said, many airlines such as American Airlines may allow 
you to take it as hand luggage to prevent it getting crumpled. It’s worth contacting your airline beforehand to find out how they can safely handle 
your dress and whether you’ll need to pay extra for it.

Get the paperwork sorted in advance

Wedding paperwork can take months to sort out in some countries. It’s worth getting this all sorted long in advance – if it’s not all completed 
you wedding may not be legal and may be postponed. Make sure that you bring all the necessary documentation with you such as your 
passport, birth certificate, visa and any other paperwork. It could be beneficial to talk to a wedding professional from that country so that you 
know exactly what you need.

Jamie x Derrick: Marriage So Far


They say that nothing can test a relationship quite like when you are traveling together. It doesn't even necessarily apply to just married couples. It applies to family, friends, and even colleagues. That's why I am personally a firm believer that married couples should always make it a point to travel together. Even better if you could actually make time to travel before having kids or when you already have kids, try to travel at least once, without the kids--so that you can re-connect on a deeper level. This could even be a great time to just be young and carefree, forget the daily grind even for just a week or two--and maybe even discuss and resolve marital issues that you are unable to express at home.

It’s only on the actual wedding day that you will realize exactly how vital transporting your guests is, and if you want to avoid any significant dramas, you’ll need to execute your plans to perfection. Here are some of the biggest wedding transport woes you might experience - and how to avoid them.

Dress Code: Black-Tie


Black-tie is one of the most common dress codes during weddings. But still, there are a lot of guests who are not sure on what Black-tie really means...and we get the confusion.  Because when you think about it, Black-tie means that it's tuxedo time for men, and for women, that means you can wear glamorous long gowns. In fact, red carpets like the Oscars are the unofficial peg for a Black-tie event. But then again, most couples don't want to be upstaged during their wedding-- I mean, we're pretty sure a groom would be secretly pissed if his buddies were in some snazzy tuxedos that might potentially look better than his -- so it's pretty confusing because the dress code says one thing, but you also have to take into consideration and read between the lines.

So here's a suggestion from stylist KC Leyco-Mempin (Miss Kayce) on how to navigate this dress code and look fearlessly cool
