The thing about having an outdoor wedding is you can never really predict what will happen. Sometimes things can get complicated, especially if it’s also a destination wedding that all your guests are flying in for. But here’s the truth: your wedding can still be very fun and memorable if you don’t allow circumstances to affect you. We’ve seen many couples thrive in spite of wedding hiccups, so here’s another story to inspire you!

Xerxes: “We were actually affected by the ash cloud in Bali, so two days before our wedding all flights were cancelled! In the end we had 18 cancellations and I wasn’t sure that my father would make it until the day of my wedding. It was a very stressful time for us but we remained positive and hopeful, and enjoyed as much of the lead up as we could. In the end people went to some extreme lengths to be at our wedding, and that made our day so much more special for us.
