We certainly believe this at Footprints Resort!
Destination weddings have become very popular, especially with millennials, according to a 2016 Wedding Travel Trent Report. But the cost of traveling to tropical locales are prohibitive for many guests, and according to this report, the average number of attendees at a tropical destination wedding is only about 28.
Global News reported that as many as one-in-five Canadian couples are heading to tropical climates for their nuptials, and as many as 40% of millennial couples are heading south.
Many couples are looking to trim the number of guests they invite to keep the cost of their wedding down, but this number is much lower than many couples wish for.
