I got married, with a two week holiday included by enjoying a tropical island wedding. We booked seats on a plane (more than 10 people flying the same route should get you a discount fare + epic payment plan) and had so much fun with our closest people - because those who were closest made the effort to come. 

Bonus... This saved us a lot of money. We enjoyed a two week holiday with friends for less than a one day event had we done the traditional thing back home in NZ or Australia. 🙌

Additional bonus: We have the most epic wedding photos, tropical beaches, jungle, abandoned buildings, trash the dress... Amazing. Would do it all over again 💯 

 that's a great way too change things up. very creative 

 Yeah I think it was way less stressful than organising something at home where probably 100 or so people would want to come and we would've been paying for a lot of food and alcohol vs enjoying a beautiful holiday with just over a handful of our favourite people! 

Definitely was a win for us 💯
