A special time and memories for just the two of you ♡

The best part about a destination wedding is the sense of uniqueness!

Away from Japan, forgetting the exhaustion and noise of daily life, surrounded by the sea and sky, sharing the start of a new life with only your loved ones in the relaxed pace of a southern island... is undoubtedly the most wonderful moment♡

Destination weddings are often held with a small number of guests in a cozy atmosphere, and at the same time, couples can enjoy a trip abroad, making it a popular choice for couples who feel that “having a grand reception at home with a lot of guests is a bit much...”♡

But how do you prepare for a resort wedding???

So, how do you go about planning a destination wedding? Once you want to have your dream overseas wedding, you'll likely find yourself wondering about preparations, costs, and many other concerns.

【Q】What should we do about guest expenses? I'm worried.

In Japan, it's common for the couple to cover transportation costs as "travel expenses," but it can be tough for a couple to bear the travel costs such as airfare and hotel stays abroad.

However, many brides might feel reluctant about asking guests to pay money to come celebrate with them... But don’t worry!

Most couples often choose to decline gifts and have guests cover their travel expenses. For most guests, a destination wedding is a wonderful memory where they can participate in their important friend's special ceremony while enjoying a trip abroad♡

You don't need to worry that inviting guests to another country might be a burden...*

【Q】How many meetings will there be?

Some may feel anxious about overseas weddings because they can't see the actual venue or give directions directly.

At Arluis Wedding, we hold well-structured meetings in our salon 2 to 3 times, giving you peace of mind*, and if you're busy, it's possible to condense the meetings into just one session, allowing couples to proceed with their wedding preparations on a schedule that suits them best!♡

【Q】When should we start preparations???

The timing for booking an overseas resort wedding is generally slower than that for domestic weddings, averaging between six months to four months out. One of the attractions of a resort wedding is that you can actually prepare in as little as two months!

While it’s common for weddings in Japan to be scheduled a year in advance, having a ceremony abroad can feel more casual yet still special!♩

【Q】What should we do about the wedding dress? Should we bring our own?

If you're considering a destination wedding, “bringing your own wedding dress” is an important issue. Rentals aren't an option at overseas dress shops, and packing your precious dress into a suitcase from Japan can make you worry about it getting wrinkled...

Plus, the pressure to definitely purchase a dress can be quite high!

Without worrying about the condition of the dress during transportation and no added costs, this system is a relief both mentally and financially!♡

【Q】How much does a destination wedding actually cost???

Costs vary depending on the area and the number of guests invited, but when you add up transportation, accommodation, attire, ceremony, reception, and other expenses, it generally ranges from about 1.2 to 2 million yen*

The average cost of a domestic wedding is around 3.5 million yen, so it's a fact that you can create special memories and have photos taken for less than half the budget while also enjoying a trip abroad!♡

【Q】Should we also hold a reception or after-party in Japan?

After having an overseas wedding with close friends and family, you might wonder if you should invite colleagues and acquaintances in Japan to a reveal party for your marriage as well.

Recently, more couples are opting not to hold an unveiling party, instead sending postcards or letters with location photos from their resort wedding to announce their marriage. However, whether to hold a 1.5 party or reception is entirely up to you!♡

There are parents who may say, “We want you to have a reception in Japan.” Arluis Wedding can introduce venues for receptions or 1.5 parties after an overseas ceremony, so it could be helpful to consult them.

【Q】How many days should guests plan to travel?

Since you're inviting guests to a destination wedding, everyone shares the feeling of wanting to relax and forget daily life. The recommended duration of stay varies by area, but in Guam, it's typically around three days and two nights. For Hawaii and Bali, which are a bit further away, an average of five days and three nights is typical*

Make sure to plan outings and shopping, so your guests can enjoy their overseas trip beyond the wedding day!♩

However, if the couple plan to cover accommodation costs, it’s important to consider the budget. A possible option could be for the couple to cover expenses up to a certain date, and let guests decide for the rest of their stay!♡

【Q】Should I give a tip to the staff on-site?

In countries like Hawaii, Guam, and America where tipping is customary, it is standard to give about 10% of the service fee received as a tip.*

Service staff in overseas settings rely on tips for their income. It’s advisable to provide tips to receive quality service!♡

While giving cash directly is common, there's a rumor that giving it in a Japanese-style envelope can leave a good impression as it showcases Japanese culture!*

【Q】Can we still do a cake cutting with just family?

Cutting the cake is something that many dream of! In an overseas wedding with a small number of people, some may think it won't be as exciting...

But that’s not true! Having a cake cutting surrounded by family and close friends creates a very cozy and warm moment♡ There are plenty of ways to create heartfelt interactions, like a thank-you bite for parents or having them model the cake-cutting for you.

The special moments captured in wedding photos during the cake cutting and the first bite will surely be treasured for a lifetime!

【Q】 Are there any dress codes for guests? Do they have to buy aloha shirts?

When it comes to destination weddings, it seems that guests often wear vibrant “Aloha shirts.” For women, you might think of pastel-colored mini dresses.

While those options are trendy and stylish, there's no rule that guests must wear them! Male guests can wear formal attire or casual clothing, and if they wish to appear more laid-back, wearing a T-shirt or flip flops is generally acceptable as long as it's not too casual!♡

However, providing matching shirts or dresses for everyone creates a sense of unity that is truly lovely, so that’s highly recommended!*
