​Planning a wedding can be hard, especially when you are planning a destination wedding in the Caribbean or anywhere other than your hometown.  Things like scouting out venues, buying decor, finding a caterer can be nearly impossible to do from afar.  In St. Croix, as well as many other remote island destination wedding locations many, if not most businesses do not have websites. Many island destinations still believe in face to face interactions and phone calls. After all, we live on an island, we don't want to be inside managing websites, we want to be outside soaking up the sun.  In our tech crazy, fast paced world though, most people depend on a businesses website to provide the much needed information to us rather than picking up a phone or stopping in to ask questions.  Looking to plan a destination wedding? Well, most likely you are not in that destination where you can stop in and talk to your vendors.  And Making phone calls? Well that can be tough too - you have to account for language barriers, time differences, cultural differences, etc.  

The above is just a quick snapshot of what it takes to plan a destination wedding.  There is so much more that goes into it but why should you worry about that? You shouldn't!  Destination wedding planners specialize in their destinations.  If you are lucky enough to find a planner that also doubles as a designer like we do at Memorable Dreams Events, you literally can do NOTHING except showing up!  

Our full service packages can be tweaked to fit most budgets and can include everything from your cake to complete decor packages and car service.  Your US Virgin Islands Caribbean wedding should be a memory of a lifetime and should not cause you stress.  Memorable Dreams Events will be your lifeline when planning your USVI destination wedding.  Enjoy your day and create your Memorable Dream.

Hello
I did for this project, trim one-sided patterned scrapbook paper into letter-size sheets to feed through your desktop printer. I chose papers from DCWV, The Garden Tea Party Stack I purchased at Michaels with my 40%-Off app coupon. I happen to be pretty fond of the DCWV design crew, <a href="https://soulshinewedding.com/">แบบการ์ดแต่งงาน</a>

I never considered getting married in the US Virgin Islands. My girlfriend wants to get married just by ourselves. I'll have to hire a planner to get us a venue on the islands.

Hey Tex -

The US Virgin Islands are the perfect place if you want a wedding by yourselves, especially if you are a US Citizen. Travel and getting married in the USVI is simple for those from the US. I would definitely recommend a planner to make it easier, and also keep your mind open to non-resort weddings, they are often the most special and cheaper!
