Wedding tourism: Greece 12% more economical

MarryAbroad notes that a ceremony in 2016 in Santorini costs just €1800, approx. £1272.

For ten years MarryAbroad.co.uk has been flying the flag for overseas weddings, as often offering couples far more cost-effective ceremonies, than getting married in the UK.

With the average UK wedding costing couples £20,000, getting hitched in another country can work out a fraction of the price and often provides guests a more glamorous and memorable occasion.

 Better value in 2015 

MarryAbroad furthermore says couples who take advantage of fluctuating exchange rates can save even more on wedding costs, by choosing their country wisely.

For example, the site suggests certain destinations are 23% better value in 2015 to 2014, due to fluctuations in exchange rates, year on year.

MarryAbroad recently partnered with company FairFX, which offers couples a free international payment service, as a safe and simple way to send money abroad.

Best bargain packages

Mariette Ferreira from FairFX states: “Exchange rates can have a big impact on the value couples get for their wedding and trip abroad so it’s important to check where the pound stretches furthest. With some countries as much as 23%  cheaper compared to this time last year based on currency alone, picking a destination with a favourable exchange rate will mean that every pound is worth more, so your wedding could cost less.”
