Honestly, I’m one of those who cringe at expensive wedding preparations and inviting hundred of people to witness a couples union. Sure, we should all be proud about tying the knot with the one we promise to love for the rest of our lives, but honestly I would rather spend on a lavish honeymoon or even our own home than to splurge on a wedding. Or, I can have both for the price of one.
Few things to consider before planning your destination wedding are:
Your Guest
What's Inside
Not everyone has the money to spend to.go to the venue of your choice . This is a great opportunity to pick only a few of your closest family and friends who are vital to your relationship. Also include the officiating officer that will make your wedding official. This makes a very intimate wedding ceremony and a real celebration of love and relationship!
The destination
Picking a destination for your wedding is very crucial. You should always think of your budget and your guests budget as well coz they will have to shell out for their air fare at least. Pick a place that you can use to hold the wedding ceremony, the reception party and honeymoon at the same time !
A perfect place I stumbled onto recently was the Kinglike Mykonos Villas . They have about 240 villas in Mykonos, Greece. Here are some of my favorite
Villa The Spot
Prange from €1,500- $3,000 a night depending on the month. Minimum stay of 5 days. It has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, with the master bedroom separate from the two guest houses where the other rooms are located. Which means the newly wed or about to wed couple have a place to themselves. This also leads you to just 10 other guest to share the Villa and the bill with 😁.
The Villa the Spot is just a few walks from tourist destinations near Mykonos or you can all just enjoy the view in your beautiful Villa as it has its own infinity pool, pergola, built-in lounge area, outdoor dining area where you can hold the private ceremony! Big kitchen and living room to have a party and just bond with your family and friends!
Villa Seduction
Another nice option I saw with nice big pool and view is the Villa Seduction. It has 5 bedrooms and 5 baths good for 10 people. They accept up minimum 3 night stays and more and price range from €1,800 to €4,500 a night depending on the season.
Villa Aqua di Mare
This is closer to Italy than Greece but this could be a great place to have that Mama Mia wedding ❤️
Villa Aqua di Mare can host up to 16 people with 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. Has infinity pool, outdoor dining area [10 seats], pergola, lounge area, outdoor kitchen, pizza oven, built-in BBQ, laundry room, pool bar with stand chairs. Price range from €1,500 to €4,500 depending on the month of the year.
Best month to have your wedding in any of the Kinglike Mymkonos Villas
Based on my browsing on rates I found out that mid-April to mid-May and mid September to mid-October has the cheapest rates available!
Good luck! I hope you have your dream wedding at your dream destination with the important people in your life to celebrate with!
