Symbolic destination weddings are the most common ceremony type that couples go with when getting married abroad! And if we can be pretty candid here, it’s also the easiest way to tie the knot in a country other than your own. Essentially, what happens is the couple uses their big day in a tropical paradise to symbolize as their wedding day. The one caveat with this is that it isn’t considered a legal ceremony. Couples will often return home after their week-long bash in paradise and legally get married at a local courthouse so it’s recognized by the country they reside in. As opposed to a Legal Destination Wedding, this option saves you the hassle with meeting the legal requirements, along with time and money!
