The joy of your engagement need not have a stressful following. Traditional weddings can cost a fortune and your guests came because it’s the two of YOU, not the event. In a few hours it’s all history. If they attended a destination wedding however, YOUR guests would enjoy a wonderful wedding and a great mini vacation as well. They can drink if they wish and not have to drive home. They will speak of it for years to come as the best wedding they ever attended because it was about them too.  What’s better?  YOUR cost and stress is usually reduced. Why not relax on the beach with your family and friends while all the preparations are done. Why not be totally relaxed on your wedding day as it will make for a spectacular wedding night!  Request guests do 3 nights (resort minimum) and the wedding party 7 nights or more. Guests wanting more than 3 nights should arrive earlier in the week than the wedding couple so guests spend 2 nights while the couple “establish residency” in that country. The 3rd day is the wedding day and night and the 4th day on is just the couple. This can be an Anniversary renewal ceremony or celebration too.

Decide on your setting such as sunset on the beach, a morning garden wedding, a wedding chapel on the resort, and many other choices. Then, choose the destination such as Jamaica, Mexico, Florida, Las Vegas, a cruise ship, Hawaii, Bahamas etc. If your wedding guests are all adults, choose an all adults or couples resort such as Sandals or for family gatherings choose a resort such as Beaches. There are even outrageous weddings available such as undersea in the Caribbean in Scuba gear, on a glacier in Alaska, on a ship at sea, Las Vegas Weddings and more.

While the resorts often have good photographers and videographers, this is your special day. Use them for photo packages while on your honeymoon, lounging around the pool, etc. But on that special day, why not have the best in wedding photographers who are willing to go on location. Jamye Perelli Photography offers spectacular wedding photography. This is your lifetime event and it should be the best you can afford. If GREAT live music for your reception is desired on location, Jayme’s husband Dino is the best.

Consult with It’s YOUR Time, Travel to choose destination packages to fit your budget. We will create a page on our website with all the details so your party can refer to it for updates and call us to secure their travel. Instead of traditional wedding gifts, guests can purchase resort appointments for hair & nails, island gift certificates, candlelight dinner on the beach, spa treatments, excursions and more directly from us. We will include a card for them to present to YOU. In the Caribbean, you can even rent or purchase a “heat friendly” wedding gown and man’s apparel.

YOU have found the NO more Bride or Mother “zilla” zone.

I have been thinking about this for a day or two and the words have not come to me. Let me tell you why.

After attending and photographing their wedding rehearsal dinner and witnessing the amount of love and admiration Mikey & Dash’s friends and family have for them I was overwhelmed. It is completely apparent that everyone that comes into contact with this pair is impressed and enamored with them and I am no exception.

Caring, giving, smart, compassionate, very easy going and an absolute joy to work with…these words really are inadequate but the best I can muster at the moment.

Mikey and Dash, thank you for entrusting me to capture your wedding day memories. You truly are something really special!
