Destination weddings are becoming increasingly popular as couples look to have their special day in unique, exotic locations. When attending a destination wedding, it is important to know the expectations for gifts. Depending on the couple, different gifts may be expected.
For Some Couples, cash or a gift certificate is the most appreciated gift. If a couple has registered for gifts, they may also expect guests to purchase items from their registry. This is especially true if the couple has moved from one location and will be starting their new life together in their destination wedding location.
For Other Couples, gifts that will help them enjoy their honeymoon or the destination itself are welcome. This could include items such as beach towels, snorkeling gear, tickets to local attractions, or anything else that will help make their honeymoon more memorable and enjoyable.
Some Couples May Prefer an Experiential Gift. Instead of a physical item they can take with them on their honeymoon, they may prefer something like a spa day or dinner at an upscale restaurant. Whatever you choose for them should reflect your knowledge of the couple and what they would enjoy doing together on their special day.
In conclusion, when attending a destination wedding it is important to know what kind of gift would be most appreciated by the couple. Cash or gift certificates are often preferred by some couples while others may prefer experiential gifts or items to help them enjoy their honeymoon in the destination location. It is up to you as the guest to choose a gift that reflects your knowledge of the couple and what they would appreciate most!
