What's Included in Our Destination Wedding Package

One Windsor planning desk keeps every moving part visible. Your local coordinator works to our schedule and reporting standards.

We compare access, capacity, weather plans and guest accommodation before you commit.

You receive a focused shortlist and a virtual recce video, followed by a practical site-visit plan.

Local coordination

A trusted European network handles the venue, catering, florals and ceremony setup on the ground.

Your Windsor planner remains accountable, checks supplier briefs and joins key production calls.

GBP budget control

Your budget is tracked in pounds with foreign exchange movements clearly recorded.

Contracts, deposits, currency conversion and approval dates sit in one shared budget.

Guest travel

We organise group flights, transfers and accommodation blocks around your ceremony schedule.

Guests get concise travel notes, arrival windows and a named contact for urgent changes.

Legal guidance

We map visa, documentation and ceremony requirements with the venue and local authority.

The paperwork calendar shows who needs each document and when it must be submitted.

On-the-day execution

Our production schedule covers supplier arrivals, speeches, transport changes and guest welfare.

The couple gets a calm morning while our team runs the timetable from first delivery to final departure.
