DESTINATION WEDDINGS ON THE RISE

Toronto, Ontario (July 26, 2007) – As an expert in the bridal and wedding industry, designer Nina Duong reports that now more than ever, couples are planning destination weddings as a popular way to avoid city heat and humidity.

The designer has seen the destination wedding trend rising year by year. The trend increase is especially noticeable among metropolitan couples. “Big metropolitan areas such as Toronto and New York get more hot and humid days,” Nina Duong explained. “None of the brides coming to my boutique want to perspire on their luxurious gown, thus they choose to marry elsewhere. They want to look their best in their wedding pictures,” the designer added.

Destination weddings are easier to plan now than they have ever been, and there are many great locations across the globe that can suite every bride’s specific wedding dreams. From European castles to tropical islands to cruise wedding – the world has a lot of options to offer even the most discriminating bride.

For couples getting married in tropical climates, the destination wedding option expands the calendar. Instead of the traditional summer wedding, couples choose to marry in other seasons. Springtime can signify the beginning of their relationship, while Holiday or New Year’s time weddings become a more pleasant option minus the snow.

Destination weddings offer the advantage of being typically a smaller size, which means a more romantic and intimate atmosphere. Although the cost of flight has to be considered, destination weddings are overall cheaper than traditional weddings.
