If you are thinking of a fall destination wedding this year, you may have made the right decision, depending on where you are header for.

Prices will be the lowest of 2009

Although autumn is naturally the season when prices diminish, the downward trend may be more marked this year. In spite of everyone's hopes of global economic recovery, that may remain a dream for the rest of the year and even longer. We will probably be seeing downward trends in number of tourists and prices.

The widespread natural disasters we experienced this year, including the volcanic explosions in Iceland and the massive oil spill in the Gulf have taken advantage of the sluggish recovery rate to dash everyone's dream of a better economy to the ground. Lots of people's finances are teetering.

More people will prefer to save their money by staying home for the fall and while travel outfits may try to put on a poker face and maintain their charges, they will have to give in to the reality that the world is not recovering as fast as it should and has in fact slid back a bit this year.

Wedding in Europe

Europe, for once, can be an economical choice for your fall destination wedding. In recent days, the Euro has been going down against the US Dollar and at the current rates, you could even end up affording a lot of shopping there. Of course you would have to have your extra luggage shipped by sea. Hotel rates in some places in Europe are as low as $100 a night. These include places like Bavaria where you could hold a Bavarian-style fall destination wedding .

Parks and Caribbean cruises

With the anticipated low in the number of travelers, theme parks are also ideal locations for an affordable fall destination wedding. Some of them are currently giving discounts of up to 50 %. If you are partial to Disney why not have a Snow White fall destination wedding?

It is important to choose travel agents well this year. Get an honest one who will give you low rates. Many will want to hide the truth from their clients for some time so that they can get more commissions. Otherwise, it might be even better to handle your own canvassing. Inquire directly from the hotels about their prices and packages. Don't stop with one hotel because many prefer to charge high and get less customers.



Las Vegas weddings

It really seems that the gambling capital of the world is also experiencing a frightening lag in their tourist industry, enough lag to make one of their famous hotels price spacious accommodations for less than $100 a night.

You need to look out for the deals

At the present time, you will have to exert more effort to find these deals because many travel-related businesses are reluctant to commit themselves at low rates, as yet. As I said, they are still hoping for miracles. But the more practical ones have started accepting reservations at greatly reduced amounts. But right now is the time to do this. Although you can probably wait until the truth comes out and have a nippy fall destination wedding.

On the other hand, you could wait for things to happen. But by that time, you may have to celebrate a cold fall destination wedding.
