Get the Word Out!

There are several ways to inform your guest about your destination nuptials.  A Save-the-Date, Announcement, Invitation, or Website are those of which I am familiar.  The important information to include on any paper correspondence would include the:

• destination
• date
• name and contact information of the travel agent
• wedding website address

We sent out a save-the-date for our wedding, but also included an insert with the rates and deposit information.  Additionally, the information was included on our wedding website.
 
In most cases, RSVP cards will not be necessary for a destination wedding, as you will know who is attending based on reservations made to the travel agent.  The savings from RSVP cards and pre-stamped return envelopes, may allow for additional money to be allotted towards the announcement of your destination wedding.  

I was perusing The Knot website and there was an idea to send the save-the-date as a "message in the bottle" for a beach destination wedding.  Unique ideas, such as this one, can get your guest excited about your wedding, but also for what would ultimately be a vacation for those attending.
