Weddings are all about new beginnings and journeys enveloped with personal whims and fancies. Better yet, a destination wedding and that too within the brilliance and beauty which is Sri Lanka is sure to linger long in one’s memory. If intrigued by the fundamentals of what it requires to plan a destination wedding and the reasoning behind such a decision, then do continue to read along.

Consider the climate

Sri Lanka’s weather is tropical and fairly consistent during all months of the year with the occasional monsoonal rains known to descend over the island nation. The southwest coast experiences showers come the months of May through September whilst the period of October to January is when showery conditions prevail over the north and east coasts respectively. Importantly, the inter-monsoonal season lasts from October to mid-November and brings with it heavy rain and thunderstorms which must be avoided as this will invariably play spoilsport ahead of your wedding.

Overall, Sri Lanka boasts a wide array of awe-inspiring and picture-perfect backdrops that can be integrated into your special day with relative ease and thoughtful planning. From sprawling beaches, verdant fields & jungles to magnificent mountains; the Emerald Isle is sure to afford one plenty of time to ponder one’s options, each bringing with it its own value additions and experiences. The west coast pouring into the magic and old-world charm of the southern coastal belt is peppered with Sri Lanka hotels and beach resort properties. Herein, towns ranging from Kalutara, Bentota, Beruwala, and Galle will come across as worthy contenders for your destination wedding. In fact, the southern coast affords a selection of boutique hotels and villas that would warm many a heart with coconut-fringed shores and dancing waves a sight for sore eyes. Even the east coast and essentially, the towns of Trincomalee and Batticaloa must not be excluded as the facilities on show marry bespoke service with dazzling coastlines that can transform the most important occasion in your life in ways you could not imagine possible. The central highlands of Sri Lanka and the areas of Kandy and Nuwara Eliya are cocooned by thick jungle, lush green tea estates, and astounding cascades that would make for one amazing encounter. Should you be considering a garden wedding, then Sri Lanka’s central province must be made note of.

The cost

It is imperative that you have a fair idea of the amount that you wish to invest. However, keep in mind that a destination wedding, though largely dependent on the location that you opt for will not have you burning holes in your pockets. The prices are more or less reasonable but be sure to go over the following areas with your better half. Decide on the time of the year, guest list, the theme that you want to be incorporated, entertainment, and whether you see it as a practical move obtain the services of professional wedding planners who would understand the ins and outs of a destination wedding. Also, if you do want to exchange vows keeping abreast with local and traditional wedding ceremonies, then this option can certainly be looked at. Having a clear mind and the ability to absorb relevant information can make the difference between overspending and staying within your budget. This is because one must always keep in mind to allocate funds in a way where you also have plenty to spend on when it comes to the honeymoon.
