You couldn’t do better than to have fall destination weddings this year. The chances are great that you can get huge discounts for wedding packages.
Prices will be equal to the lowest of 2009…and maybe even less
We have always expected prices to go down with the heat every autumn, but this year we may be in for a few surprises. Although travel companies continue to hope for the global economic recovery so optimistically predicted for 2010, it seems to be far off. Tourists and prices are all on the downtrend.
The widespread natural disasters we experienced this year, including the volcanic explosions in Iceland and the massive oil spill in the Gulf have taken advantage of the sluggish recovery rate to dash everyone’s dream of a better economy to the ground. Lots of people’s finances are teetering.
You can expect many folks to take their time out from spending sprees this fall. Many will be forced to stay home. Even if travel ads proclaim everything to the contrary, the fact remains that instead of going uphill, world economy is, in fact, slowly moving down again.
Wedding in Europe
This may be your chance to have fantastic deals in Europe for your fall destination weddings. The past few days have been showing the Euro sinking against the dollar. The current exchange figures may even have you shopping at very affordable prices there. Naturally you will have to think about shipping your extra luggage home. In Bavaria, for instance, hotels are renting for as low as $100/night. The plush suites may cost a bit more but the rates will certainly be lower. Bavarian fall destination wedding anyone? .
Parks and Caribbean cruises
With everyone anticipating a record drop in the number of tourists, theme parks are now giving discounts now of up to 50 %. A Disney fall destination wedding is not a bad idea at all.
It is important to choose travel agents well this year. Get an honest one who will give you low rates. Many will want to hide the truth from their clients for some time so that they can get more commissions. Otherwise, it might be even better to handle your own canvassing. Inquire directly from the hotels about their prices and packages. Don’t stop with one hotel because many prefer to charge high and get less customers.
Las Vegas weddings
It really seems that the gambling capital of the world is also experiencing a frightening lag in their tourist industry, enough lag to make one of their famous hotels price spacious accommodations for less than $100 a night.
You need to look out for the deals
At the present time, you will have to exert more effort to find these deals because many travel-related businesses are reluctant to commit themselves at low rates, as yet. As I said, they are still hoping for miracles. But the more practical ones have started accepting reservations at greatly reduced amounts. But right now is the time to do this. Although you can probably wait until the truth comes out and have a nippy fall destination wedding.
On the other hand, you could wait for things to happen. But by that time, you may have to celebrate a cold fall destination wedding.
