List of Wedding Ceremony Participants - Wedding Types - Destination Wedding

Not to be confused with an elopement, a destination wedding is one in which a wedding is hosted, often in a vacation-like setting, at a location to which most of the invited guests must travel and often stay for several days. This could be a beach ceremony in the tropics, a lavish event in a metropolitan resort, or a simple ceremony at the home of a geographically distant friend or relative. During the recession of 2009, destination weddings continued to see growth compared to traditional weddings, as the typically smaller size results in lower costs.

Famous quotes containing the words destination and/or wedding:

    A man’s destination is his own village,
    His own cooking fire, and his wife’s cooking;
    To sit in front of his own door at sunset
    And see his grandson, and his neighbour’s grandson
    Playing in the dust together.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    You are the food,
    you are the tooth, you are the husband,
    light, light, sieving through the screen
    whereon I bounce my big body at you
    like shoes after a wedding car.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
