Taking the stress of your planning task, we present to you a few do’s and don’ts for a destination wedding in Goa.
Do’s
1) Budget
Pick your venue thoughtfully by considering a budget. Do you want a beach side resort or the quieter eco resort?. Do give this thought a bit of your time as the venue adds to more than half of your wedding preparations.
2) Venue
Visit the venue personally once before finalising the deal altogether.
3) Local Event Planner
Consider hiring a local event planner as locals know how to put up a great show for you on their home turf.
4) Wedding Date
Send an early save the date invite so that all your friends and family keep themselves free considering the time involved to travel for your wedding.
5) Social Media Group
After finalising the venue, come up with a social media group, giving all your guests a complete detail of their stay. Add details related to accommodation, vehicle rentals, and dress attires for all the ceremonies and so on.
6) Customs
Include a blend of your traditional wedding customs along with local ones to give yourselves a perfect destination wedding feel.

Go in for a local Goan cuisine – Portuguese, Konkan and Bahamani cuisines are a must try.
Don’t’s
