Frequently asked questions
What should I pack in my carry-on for a destination wedding?
The dress or suit, the rings, printed paperwork, medication and one change of clothes. Everything else can follow in a checked bag.
How do I pack a wedding dress for a flight?
Ask the airline to hang it in the cabin if possible; otherwise use a breathable garment bag inside a hard case, and plan a steaming hour on arrival.
Do we need travel insurance that covers the wedding?
Check that cancellation and baggage cover are adequate — an uninsured bag with the suit in it is the classic destination-wedding disaster.
How early should we arrive?
Two or three days before the ceremony for a short-haul destination, and longer if paperwork, altitude or jet lag are involved.
Can I print the packing list?
Yes — copy or download it, then tick items off on paper. The browser ticks stay on this device.
What if my destination is not listed?
Pick the closest climate: a humid city break works with the tropical list, and a cold-weather city with the winter list.
