Article courtesy of AA Vacations (Claire Varrelmann, 972.830.2896)

Half a million couples will celebrate a destination wedding this year while 55 percent of couples have considered eloping because wedding plans have gotten out of hand! A four-day wedding weekend can cost less than a meal and reception for 150-200 people at a luxury hotel in New York.

Popular Places for Destination Weddings are...

Some of the leading destinations for weddings are:

Las Vegas, 100,000 weddings performed annually

Hawaii, 20,000 weddings performed annually

U.S. Virgin Islands, 5,100 weddings performed annually

Jamaica, 5,000 weddings performed annually

Bahamas, 4,000 weddings performed annually

More locally in the New York, Conneticut, and New Jersey area the most popular place for destination weddings is the New Jersey Shore.

The proper destination etiquette of a wedding generally calls for invited guests to pay their own airfare, while the bride and groom pick up the tab for the lodging, food, and beverages at an all-inclusive resort - but couples can now find alternatives to offer their guests discounts on hotels and flights.

Destination Wedding Tips

Below are some tips and resources that are sure to help couples plan a great destination wedding:

Remember to ask for hotel discounts for you and your guests - many times hotels will give discounts when you reserve a block of rooms at a time.

Look for generous wedding packages - American Airlines Vacations has developed a unique wedding travel package that offers up to 10 percent off published air fares, plus complimentary wedding invitations inserts to inform out-of-town guests of the discount. These special discounts are available when 10 or more out-of-town guests travel to a wedding. For more information try the Web site www.AAvacations.com

For Brides Only: American Airlines offers a special wedding service desk (800) 545-8193.

American Airline's Web site, AA.com, offers special wedding packages to Vegas, including photography, music for the service, a wedding coordinator and flowers.

American Airline's Vacation Web site, www.AAvacations.com offers special packages for traveling couples for example: Aruba: Atlantis Submarine Tour, excursion begins at Seaport Village

Marina and once on the sub, the vessel submerges to 100-150 feet below the ocean to the Barcadera Reefs. Island Sightseeing Tour, full morning excursion by deluxe air-conditioned motorcoach where you'll visit the St. Anna Church, Natural Bridge, shop for souvenirs and more.

Cayman Islands: Stingray Snorkel Trip, an exciting three-hour tour includes Stingray Sandbar to interact (feed and play) with stingrays in their natural environment, Coral Gardens Reef and the Aquarium. Island Highlights Tour, includes a tour to Capital, an art gallery, Conch Shell House, Tortuga Rum Factory, along seven mile beach and the Cayman Turtle Farm.

General Honeymoon vacation travel tips for couples prepping for a honeymoon or destination wedding:

Busy brides can check-in up to 30 hours before a flight on American Airlines' Web site, AA.com. Couples can check in the night before a flight, print boarding passes and go directly to security in the morning.

Use flight status notification via voice or text messaging so loved ones have an easier time picking you up from the airport.

Make sure you know the legalities if you are planning a destination, especially if it out of the country.

If you plan on having a destination wedding honeymoon vacation, try to visit the destination once to finalize any details and to help you anticipate any potential problems.
