Come summer, we know we all get a little travel happy, and there’s more time spent checking the latest flight offers than our country’s weather forecast. A lot of our summer daydreaming is spent thinking of far flung beaches and sunset evenings, rather than spontaneous rain showers and growing bus queues. To fully embrace all that is summer, we are focusing on everything destination wedding-related. From sunny islands in the Caribbean to the rolling hillside of Tuscany, we can’t get enough of weddings hosted around the globe, in fabulous, envy-inducing locations. A destination doesn’t exactly have to be filled with sunshine and beaches either. It can be a winter wonderland escape in some distant, grand castle in Germany or Prague. Or it can be in bustling city like New York or Tokyo.
Destination weddings give the couple a chance to decide on a place that speaks to their own interests and values, from simply chasing the sun to choosing a place that holds special meaning in your lives. It could be a place that the two of you have both longed to visit, a place you fell in love or it could be a place that has attributed a vital part to your love story, like an Italian café that you had a first date in. Your destination can be the place you want to bring your love story to life and cement its new beginning in a country or city that is full of romance and meaning. From exciting invitations informing guests to grab their sun hats to tropical music and entertainment immersed in another culture, there are endless perks and draws to bringing your wedding party to another land. And some of these destinations are truly breathtaking. Take a look at these picturesque, romantic sights and destination weddings straight from Instagram. #Instainspo
