Now, I'll say this as a bride. If someone cannot attend my wedding because of travel costs, I totally understand. Weddings can be meaningful for both the couple getting married and you as a guest, but you should not go if it's going to derail your financial goals. That's why planning ahead is key. Okay, let's talk strategy and actually planning ahead for wedding travel.

They are, but it's generally not a good idea to fly out day of for a can't miss event. Flight delays are surprisingly common. In fact, across 2024, 22% of flights in the US were delayed. Yeah, I know. I would be sad if a guest booked a flight and missed my wedding just because of a delay. So if you're on my invite list and are listening to this podcast, please do not book a Saturday flight.

Yeah, and I'm glad you say that because we actually want our guests to fly in early to our wedding, both to avoid the panic of missing their flight and also to get lower airfares. So for our guests, we're actually hosting a welcome bonfire at the beach on Thursday, really just so we can see the people who flew in early.

Of course. So I'm like, to my guests, do not fly out on Sunday. Extend the fun. We are doing a brunch at my fiance's parents' house. Well, I guess he'll be my husband at that point, but we're doing that brunch the next day. And we're also coordinating a drinks and fun hangout Sunday evening.
