\"Barcelo<\/a><\/p>\n

The bride gave a lot of great tips on how she was able to pull off a wedding of her dreams. Here are some of my faves:<\/p>\n

\"Riviera<\/a>Tip #1 – use a travel consultant to make travel easier for guests<\/strong><\/p>\n

The couple\u00c2\u00a0hired a\u00c2\u00a0travel consultant who got the couple and their guests a group rate. Guests emailed their travel confirmations to the consultant who then created an itinerary of arrivals for Vika. This way the couple knew about the safe arrival of their guests without having to organize dozens of flights themselves.<\/p>\n

Tip #2 – hire a wedding coordinator<\/strong><\/p>\n

The bride said she helped by staying on top of things, getting local wedding favors and keeping all the information the couple needed organized.<\/p>\n

Tip #3 – incorporate travel into the wedding experience<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vika sent guests pre-travel packets with customized luggage tags, brochures and a wedding itinerary. Once everyone arrived, they received an \u00e2\u20ac\u0153out of town bag\u00e2\u20ac\u009d with personal labels and the couple\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s wedding logo. The bags included a hangover kit, first aid kit and beach kit.<\/p>\n
