A wedding ceremony involves more than simply marrying the person you love. The perfect wedding is an elegant ballet of order and chaos, and items such as wedding favours, wedding hairstyles, and wedding music must be kept in perfect order, or the entire wedding can be thrown off-kilter. Whether the bride is an environmentalist seeking a purely green wedding, or a society doyenne who must have simply the best of everything, the fact remains that planning a wedding can require help. The wedding flowers, wedding accessories, as well as the wedding invitations and the wedding ceremony itself, must all be to the couple's liking; otherwise, they won't enjoy themselves as much as possible. Some people enjoy a beach wedding, while others prefer a fall wedding. The fact remains that there are hotels that specialise in handling weddings and taking as much of the stress away from the wedding party as possible. Hotels that handle hundreds of such weddings annually are very good at ensuring that every aspect of the wedding is perfect, from the wedding centrepiece to the wedding announcements. They will bring in clergy to handle the wedding readings, and they'll even hire the wedding band. The wedding bouquets are often prepared on site, and they'll even have their staff work with the wedding party on their wedding vows. These hotels typically have wedding chapels on site, and they often have a wedding DJ or wedding band on retainer to provide the music. These groups, of course, know the wedding march, as well as a number of wedding waltz options. Regardless of the wedding song that the couple wants, the band can typically arrange it. First dance lessons are available for those who need them, and these destination wedding resorts often have a full time wedding planner. These resorts that handle a typical destination wedding even have a wide selection of wedding card options, and many of them are in warm destinations for those couples who want a winter wedding. They'll assign staff to man the wedding book and ensure that guests make a record that they were at the wedding, and the wedding dress and wedding veils are stored to prevent damage.

There are a few destination wedding resorts that are wildly popular with UK residents, and they handle the entire wedding from start to finish. The Marriott hotels across the UK and Ireland can handle weddings of any size, and it all starts with the planning. Representatives from the resort will meet with the wedding party to determine the size of the wedding, and they'll work out seating arrangements for both the rehearsal dinner and the post wedding reception. The Marriott hotel has a staff that will create menus that the guests will enjoy, and the qualified culinary staff at the hotel will go out of their way to prepare the best dishes for wedding guests. Menu tastings are provided, including samples of the various wedding cakes that the staff offers. The Marriott staff can offer ceremonies that satisfy most major religions, and certainly include same-sex ceremonies, as well. A honeymoon suite is provided for the bride and groom, and honeymoon packages can be booked at more than 2,500 resorts worldwide. A destination wedding can be arranged through Marriott even if the wedding party doesn't want to use their local Marriott for the ceremony. The staff at the Marriott can handle any special requests, as well, including kosher menus and menus that satisfy most other major religious requirements. Wedding packages may include a champagne brunch, as well as a lunch buffet or a formal dinner. Regardless of the type of dining preferred, guests are guaranteed to enjoy the food and the atmosphere, and it frees up the wedding party and family to socialize with their guests.

Of course, there are other destination resorts that are popular with UK and Ireland residents, and perhaps the most popular of them all is the Hotel Phoenicia, on Malta. Formerly the Le Meridien, the Hotel Phoenicia is one of the most luxurious of all the hotels in Europe. The staff at the Phoenicia will spend weeks working with a wedding party to ensure that every aspect of the wedding is absolutely perfect. The hotel will fly in staff, if requested, in order to provide the best service possible. The Phoenicia can handle weddings of nearly any size, since the sprawling grounds are perfect for holding an outdoor wedding. The culinary staff at the hotel isn't afraid to take requests, and they'll go out of their way to ensure that special dietary requirements or requests are met with style and flair. The Hotel Phoenicia also offers rehearsal dinner services and brunch for guests of the wedding party, and blocks of rooms can be reserved so the guests can be close to one another.
