Hi all!
Has anyone planned a destination wedding in a really remote location? When I say really remote I'm talking about somewhere that is a 15+ hour flight and then 3 hour drive. My family has a ranch/house in Argentina and it is a very special location to both of us. I have always wanted to get married there, but I don't know if the effort of planning a wedding in the middle of nowhere and in another language will be worth it. I speak some Spanish but I am not fluent, although the rest of my family is. I'm also worried that we will get substantially less than 50% of our american guests because it is so remote. I know that guest percentage is a function of how well off your friends are so it changes wildly from couple to couple. Many of our friends have been asking when we're going to get married for years because they say they want to go to Argentina, but I feel like once it comes down to it most of that will just be talk. I was just wondering if anyone else has planned a similarly remote wedding, i.e., somewhere multiple hours from a major international airport, and how it went: guest percentage, if they hired a local planner, etc. I know this is not the most common type of destination wedding discussed on this board, so I don't expect to get a lot of feedback, but anything would be great!
Thanks!
