A destination wedding is the latest trendy iteration of the timeless ceremony. Why not invite all
of your loved ones to an exciting new place to celebrate this big life step? A destination wedding
is a great option for couples who have friends and family spanning the globe because they can
offer a halfway point. Though there are plenty of reasons as to why these events are fantastic,
they also come with their own set of risks and inconveniences. People who aren’t so experienced
with travelling can end up getting sick if they aren’t careful. To ensure that you have the best time
possible, we have come up with a few tips on staying healthy when travelling to a destination
wedding.

Pack Appropriately

There’s nothing more stressful than arriving at a place only to realize that you forgot to pack the
right clothes. Instead of enjoying the new location or spending time with friends you hardly see, you
have to run around town in search of proper clothing. To avoid this, you should research the
weather beforehand. If you’re travelling to a tropical climate, there’s always a possibility that the
weather can be a bit unpredictable. So, in addition to researching and planning ahead, you should
also pack a rain jacket just in case

Research Local Gyms

Chances are that over the course of the wedding weekend, you will be eating a lot of fatty food and
drinking a plethora of cocktails. Though there’s nothing wrong with that, you can offset those extra
calories with some time working out at the hotel gym, swimming laps in the pool, jogging around the
neighbourhood, or going to a local park. Before you get to the destination wedding, look online to
see if the hotel has a gym or if there is any places locals go-to exercise. In the event that there are
scarce options, you can always download workout apps or find routines on YouTube. Regardless,
what’s important is that you will be staying on top of your fitness.

Prepare For Skin Changes

Changes in weather can stimulate acne breakouts. If you’re suddenly thrust in an environment with
high humidity, an acne breakout is a real possibility. And if you’re going to a place with cold weather,
your skin can get dry and itchy. Make sure to bring your dopp kit with you to prepare for the worst.
You will want to bring all of your skincare products — moisturizers, acne treatments, and sunscreen.
Especially if you’re going to a sunnier climate, a high SPF sunscreen is crucial to ensuring you don’t
come home with damaged skin.

Watch What You Eat and Drink

When travelling to a new place, you should be careful about what you eat and drink. Ask the hotel
concierge what restaurants serve food that’s safe for tourists. Sometimes, it can be tough to get all
the nutrition you need at a new location. A good solution to this is bringing collagen supplements
with you. Not only can collagen ensure that you’re getting your proper levels of nutrition, but it can
also keep you full so you don’t go into meals desperately hungry. At a wedding ceremony, you will
certainly be out in the sun for a long time, eating sodium-rich foods, and drinking alcoholic.

Plan Ahead So You Can Relax

Nobody likes unexpected surprises. To avoid being thrust in an anxiety-inducing situation,
thoroughly research the place you’re going to beforehand to see which parts of town are dangerous
and if there’s anything happening politically that you should be aware of. Additionally, you should
consider booking one extra day so you don’t have to feel rushed when heading back home. You have
come all the way to a new place or city, why not reserve a little extra time to explore?
