Are all inclusive wedding venues worth it? ›

One of the major benefits is that you know your cost up-front with an all-inclusive, and there are no nasty surprises a few days before the wedding when bills suddenly come due. You'll be surprised to know that most couples don't realize there is an extra $15-20,000 of expenses when all is said and done.

You'll most likely need a permit, which is usually issued by your local parks department. It will state if you are allowed to bring in chairs and toilets, play music, and have guests throw birdseed. Read the fine print to see if there's a cleanup stipulation. Many parks charge fines for garbage left behind.

Typically, having everything offered in one package deal, including vendors, will be a cheaper option than contracting everything else separately. Since all of your wedding expenses will be rolled out into one bill, you'll also save on additional costs, including gratuities.

The actual nuptial ceremony and reception, similar to what a Western wedding encompasses, take place on the third day after two days of more intimate events (such as the tilak ceremony, the haldi (or pithi) ceremony, the mehndi party, and the sangeet) and are only attended by close friends and family members.

Do you pick a wedding date or venue first? ›

This is another reason why it's so important that your venue reflects your style and personality as a couple! Choosing a date before selecting a venue could cause you to change the entire look or feel that you were originally hoping for!

Typically, a guestlist of 75 to 150 people is considered an "average" wedding size. However, average guest counts fluctuate too. Did you know that about ten more guests are invited to weddings this year than last year? That brings the national average to just over 100 wedding guests.

However, there are many planning decisions to be made for the big day that involves the two. The bride and the groom often plan and make decisions together in setting the budget, choosing the date, and the site for the wedding, among other key issues.

The average Caribbean wedding package, not including your stay, is around $1,000.00. A full week in the islands staying at an all-inclusive resort usually costs between $5,000.00 and $8,000.00.

All-inclusive wedding packages include everything, or almost everything, that you would need for your wedding. Typically through a wedding venue or wedding planner, all-inclusive packages will include all catering, floral, decorations, rentals, tables, chairs, linens, venue and so on.

Most resorts have on-site planners who take care of every detail so you can just relax and enjoy your big day. All-Inclusive means that everything is included in your package–the room rate, food, drinks, tips, taxes, and a basic ceremony (sometimes a small reception dinner too).
