So many reasons why I wanted a destination wedding! First of all, I didn't want to spend tens of thousands of dollars on one day when we're getting a house all in the same year. I like the thought of celebrating with a small, close group of family and friends. It also puts my Fiance and I on even playing field as far as family goes. Most of my family lives in a different province/countries, his family all lives around here. We're asking the same thing of everyone, so it makes it more fair I guess you could say. To be honest I never really dreamed of my wedding until I actually saw one while on vacation. I thought then, now THAT is my dream wedding - so destination wedding it was:)
