Magical Destination Weddings Inc.

My Product/Service:: 

My Product/Service: Destination weddings are becoming more popular each year. Instead of the more traditional wedding where you and your guests (many of whom the bride and groom don't even know) have a buffet and a dance in an overcrowded hall of some sort, the destination wedding incorporates a "vacation" like, more relaxed atmosphere for everyone involved. It could be from a quick weekend getaway just a few hours from home to a full-scale vacation. Only your imagination (and your budget) limit the possibilities! My company is a destination wedding agency that plan intimate wedding ceremony/honeymoons. There will be wedding packages available or the customer can customize their own package. All packages include: Minister, Marriage License, Champagne, Best Man, Maid of Honor, and Witness, as needed. All formalities and penalties will be discussed prior to the reservation.
