Destination Wedding Feel, Right In Your Own BackYard

A few months ago, I traveled to Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands for a relaxing vacation as well as to do some research for some destination wedding events. A destination wedding can be a beautiful experience for not only you but your guests as well. These wedding events are usually very intimate, and create many opportunities for fun, travel and celebration. As great as these type of events are, sometimes that much dreamed about locale just won't work with every budget.

A dear friend and client is experiencing this exact issue. She is wanting a tropical, destination wedding but financially, the timing is just not right to do any traveling. So she is opting for a local venue with a lake. She loves the sand, the sun and the aqua blues and green of the ocean and, so that is where we started. It's important to her that her guests feel the casual elegance of a beach, even if there isn't a beach.Take a look at the inspiration boards we created to help start the planning process.



We are still tweaking the process but this is giving us a place to start. By the way, if you want to play with inspiration boards, check out Style Me Pretty's Style Circle. There are lots of great photos and layouts to help build your inspiration board and rev up your creativity. Well, I think we are ready to start planning. What do you think? Is there anything you would suggest we add or take away? I would love to know your thoughts.

Stay tuned for more trendy ideas using the senses to create the effect for your destination wedding event, at home.
