Something old, something new and something cheap


With the cost of weddings generally rising in the UK and Ireland, the demand for overseas weddings is once again increasing in 2009. The deciding factor is once again value for money and ensuring that your wedding day is perfect in everyway.

To limit the effect of the current economic climate, our preferred partner, Gran Canaria Weddings and Celebrations launched a Credit Crunch Wedding Package where the couples can make significant savings on their wedding day without cutting corners or reducing the quality of service provided.

Getting married in Gran Canaria is fast becoming a favourite destination for overseas weddings based on the cost effectiveness and year round outstanding weather. With the average cost of a wedding in the UK as much as 20,000 pounds compare with as little as 4000 pounds in Gran Canaria, it is no surprise that more people are now looking at Credit Crunch weddings as the best option for their special and memorable day.

"Gran Canaria weddings offer exotic but affordable versions of celebrity-inspired weddings. As the credit crunch bites and recession looms, this could be the perfect cost-saving measure allowing couples to have the wedding day they have always dreamed of," says Paul Gibson

A potential downside is that while the bride and groom often benefit from a cheaper celebration, weddings abroad can prove an expensive affair for guests. But Gran Canaria Weddings has also been able to establish outstanding relationships with hotels and also tour operators to minimize the costs of flights and accommodation as much as possible including group discounts, which is why more people are attending weddings in Gran Canaria and taking a holiday at the same time.

With the addition of Hen and Stag party weekends in Gran Canaria, the whole wedding package is now arranged by the couple’s personal wedding planner, making the wedding package more attractive and more accessible for everyone.
