Destination weddings are held outside the couple's hometown, often involving planning and ceremonies at a chosen location.
Destination weddings often revolve around four distinct seasons: high season, mid-season, low season, and mid-peak season. The high season, spanning from late winter to the end of summer, signifies the period when most weddings take place. Various activities within destination weddings encompass accommodation services, food services, butler services, and other related offerings. These events involve a series of functions, including pre-wedding ceremonies, the main wedding event, receptions, bachelor's parties, and other celebratory gatherings. Venues for destination weddings can be either national or international destinations. Booking channels for these venues commonly include phone reservations, online booking platforms, and in-person booking services, providing multiple avenues for couples planning their dream destination weddings.

For instance, according to a 2022 real weddings survey by Theknot, a US-based wedding planning company, 70% of couples agreed if they planned to have a marriage in 2022 to include environment-friendly activities and decor such as buying second-hand or up-cycled items, using recycled paper items, and minimizing the use of single-use plastic. One-third of the couples believed that the vendors should be more proactive in providing eco-friendly solutions.
