    The one thing to keep in mind is if you plan a destination wedding, your guest list is going to reduce dramatically. Your costs are going to be a little bit more affordable based on the fact that there's going to be less guests present. Second, know your budget and know what you are open to spending.

    I don't recommend skimping on photography. It's one of the aspects of a wedding that I think is really important. A good photographer is going to take all the little details and really encapsulate them in the most beautiful way.

    My biggest advice is just take your budget and try to stay close to it. Be aware that you probably will go over it a little bit. Try to review your budget as you make choices regarding venue, catering, and ceremony costs.

    Search online for local rentals. You might also check with family and friends who might let you borrow a dress. You could also get one from Goodwill and have it tailored.
