Questions
What should I pack for a destination wedding?
Your wedding outfit and shoes in your hand luggage, a second outfit for the welcome party, comfortable shoes for walking, swimwear if there is water nearby, a plug adapter, local cash, sun protection and any medication. The checklist adapts to your destination and month.
Should I carry my wedding outfit in hand luggage?
Yes. Checked bags get delayed. Keep the outfit, shoes and any accessories you cannot replace with you on the plane.
What shoes should I bring to a destination wedding?
Bring the shoes you will wear with your outfit plus a comfortable pair. Block heels or flats work far better on grass, sand and cobblestones than stilettos.
Do I need cash at a destination wedding?
A little local cash is useful for taxis, tips and small shops, especially in Morocco, Indonesia, Mexico and Colombia. Check how tipping works for your destination on our destination pages.
