Destination Wedding Planner in Kenya

A destination wedding would be a wonderful choice for you if you are a globetrotter. Basically, a destination wedding is a wedding that takes place somewhere other than the couple’s hometown. Such weddings were negatively impacted by the COVID 19 pandemic, but in 2022, they have made a strong comeback. Their prevalence has increased. Consequently, a large number of planners in Kenya are now offering this form of planning as a service.

As an event planning company with six years of expertise, Janeson Events, we can affirm that arranging a destination wedding requires significantly more effort than traditional domestic weddings. It will not only need more effort but more money. 

We have some tips to help you manage your budget. We advice our clients to:

• Consider a week day

Given that weekdays are more widely available and less expensive, a destination wedding on a weekday makes perfect sense.

• Book off-season

We advise our clients to make reservations during off-peak times because rates are lower and popular destinations are less congested.

• Come up with a small intimate guestlist

It would be unrealistic for a couple to invite 200 people to a destination wedding. Cut cost by inviting  closest people who are most important to both of you.

• Choose the best way to pay.

Opening a rewards credit card in advance of the wedding that allows you to accumulate points or miles on purchases is one potential approach to save. You might use those miles to partially or fully pay for your flights or hotel stays when it comes time to make travel arrangements.

We also assist our clients in conducting in-depth research on the  destination of their choosing. In addition to other things, we assist in determining any travel restrictions, the convenience of transportation from the airport, weather (rain, temperature, monsoons, etc.), general culture and cuisine, safety and medical difficulties.

It would be incorrect to assume that only the wealthy plan destination weddings because there have been significant developments in recent years regarding wedding spending and lavishness. It is true previously only the affluent were renowned for planning such extravagant events, but today, the upper middle class has also shown signs of a new consciousness and they too want to hold grandiose parties.
