Luxury getaways for your intimate destination wedding
After potentially two years of putting off wedding planning, many couples are reconsidering their needs and opting for more intimate celebrations with a much leaner guest list. Saying ‘I do’ at a smaller resort with a smaller crowd is a great opportunity to spend more time and budget on the things that are most important to you. For some couples, it also speeds up the wedding timeline. We’ve shared some of our favourite resorts that offer intimacy and privacy without sacrificing an unforgettable experience in paradise with those closest to you!
