Plan Your Wedding Abroad

Thinking about getting married in a luxurious destination with sensational sea views? Well, you are not alone! It is currently estimated that one in five British weddings now take place overseas. With the lure of white sands and guaranteed sunshine, it’s no wonder so many couples have their nuptials outside of the UK.

However, there are a few things to consider before making a decision and Sainsbury’s Bank have produced a useful guide which aims to do exactly that. Whatever the season or destination, you’ll find plenty of practical tips and advice inside the ‘Getting married abroad’ booklet.

From budget planning and paperwork to choosing a venue and time of year, you’ll find all the details you need to make wedding planning a stress-free and exciting experience. You can read the full guide on the website: http://www.sainsburysbank.co.uk/library/default/resources/married-abroad.pdf

Here are some just a few tips you can find inside:

• Top 10 destinations for getting married abroad
• Key questions to ask when choosing a venue
• Useful budget advice
• Perfect locations for every season
• Applying for a marriage licence  
• Choosing the best suppliers 

A good place to start is by searching for the perfect place - we've discovered one on the paradise island of Cyprus, which you can read about in our autumn issue of West Weddings. Some of the couples featured in West Weddings magazine over the years have also exchanged vows in fabulous faraway places - find out about their stories in our previous digital issues.
