How to plan the perfect wedding
1. Get engaged
Planning a proposal will set the tone for your wedding and soon to be marriage, so if you think they might not be too happy with you casually asking “well shall we do it then?”, you need to start with a plan.
We here at Viva Travel are self confessed hopeless romantics, which is why we are all so passionate about what we do. It also means we spend most of our waking hours dreaming of romantic ways for someone to ask the big question ‘Will you marry me?’
If you don’t know where to start, contact us for assistance to plan a proposal worthy of your loved one.
2. Choose the ideal destination
Location, location, location! One of the most important decisions to make for your wedding day, a destination needs to be carefully picked to ensure it can cater to your dream wedding.
Our consultants each specialise in specific areas around the world, so can help you establish where would suit your budget, guests and requirements best.
3. Customise your wedding day
Congratulations! You have decided to have your dream wedding in a beautiful romantic location - and now you have gotten to the fun part! Now is the time to tinker and tailor your wedding down to the finest of details, to make it truly represent you. Who will get the pleasure of dolling you up on your big day?
What flowers do you want blooming from your bouquet? Did you want to organise a wild bucks night before the big day? We can help with it all.
4. Celebrate
We have guided you through the most stressful part of planning a wedding and now the big day is approaching. Pack your bags and get ready to celebrate!
5. Enjoy your honeymoon
You might need somewhere to wind down after the wedding of your dreams (and to escape the inlaws), which is why we helped you also plan a destination honeymoon as the cherry on top of an already perfect holiday.
