Travelling with kids for your destination wedding?

Here are some tips for a family-friendly celebration!

Planning a destination wedding can be exciting, but adding kids to the mix means extra considerations to ensure everyone has a great time! Here are some tips for making your wedding fun for guests of all ages:

  • Choose a family-friendly venue: Look for resorts that cater to families and offer kid-friendly amenities like pools, playgrounds and organized activities.
  • Kid’s menu options: Ensure the catering includes a variety of kid-friendly meals. Little ones can be picky eaters, so having options like chicken tenders or pasta can keep them happy during the reception.
  • Create a kids’ corner: Setup a designated area with games, crafts, or movies to keep the little ones entertained while adults enjoy the festivities.
  • Plan fun activities: Incorporate family-friendly excursions or activities, like beach games, treasure hunts, or group outings to local attractions to create lasting memories.
  • Consider childcare services: If you want adults to enjoy a night out, look into hiring a trusted childcare service to supervise the kids while you celebrate!
  • Communicate with guests: Let your guests know in advance that kids are welcome and provide them with information about kid-friendly activities at the venue and surrounding areas.

By planning with families in mind, you can create a magical destination wedding that everyone will cherish! If you find this a tad overwhelming, that's where I can come in too! Let’s make your big day unforgettable for guests of all ages!
