If one of your girlfriends is planning a wedding, try to talk her into having the ceremony out of town. Destination weddings are becoming more and more popular, and if you're invited, that's an automatic vacation!

Top 10 Destination Weddings

1. Hawaii - Aloha, mahalo, melekeleke maka. These are all fun to say, and you'll get to repeat them frequently at the wedding in Hawaii.

2. Jamaica - who doesn't get that "One Love, One Heart" song, with the kettle drums, stuck in their heads when thinking of Jamaica. "Let's get together, and feel alright" - that's a great wedding theme!

3. Mexico - another destination with a great theme song. James Taylor's "Mexico" can be the first dance at the reception. Right after we play the piñata game.

4.Tahiti - sure, it's kind of far away, but what better way to avoid having those pesky "distant relatives", and colleagues of your parents usurping all your fun wedding time? Plus, those overwater bungalows are fantastic.

 
5. St. Lucia - often described as a "small, lush, tropical gem", which is precisely how the groom should refer to his new bride.

6. Italy -arguably the most romantic country in the world, where a glass of wine with breakfast is considered perfectly normal. Cheers to the happy couple!

7. Greece - one of my friends got married in Greece. Greece is stunningly picturesque and exotic and very high on my list of "places to visit". I wasn't invited - she said it was "just family". We're no longer friends.

8. Aruba - Aruba just sounds sexy, doesn't it? I mean, you just can't be frantic, stressed or uptight in Aruba. And frantic, stressed and uptight do not make for a sexy wedding anyway.

9. U.S. Virgin Islands - the perfect place for a white wedding. Ha ha ha. Please stop me.

 
10. Bermuda - if you want your wedding relaxed and casual, there really is no better place than an island that has a pair of shorts named after it. Plus it has beautiful, sunny, sandy beaches.

The majority of these were beach destinations, but all of them are definitely romantic, and we would be happy to attend any wedding in any of these spots. Just send us an invitation.
