No way. You send them the link that your travel agent will give you that has all of the info of your destination prices for different rooms and airplane tickets
If you want them to come - yes. If you don’t want them to come - then no.
I wouldn’t have a destination wedding if I couldn’t pay for flights and accommodations for the guests. The reason simply being - I don’t know everyone’s financial situation and wouldn’t want to be a burden to them on what is supposed to be a happy celebration.
You’ll just have to be prepared to not have a “huge wedding”. And the only ppl I would pay for is my parents.
But you can also do a wedding on a cruise. Where everyone can be there for your wedding and before the cruise leaves and they’ll have to be off the boat and you can have your honeymoon and it gives ppl the option to pay if they want to use that time for vacation as well.
So. Destination weddings are SMALL weddings, for the most important people in your life. Your parents, best friends. IF your best friends didn’t have money for the trip and you want them there, it’s your responsibility to get them there. Other people who aren’t do or die on coming for you, I wouldn’t worry about it at all. But expect to pay for those important people if they can’t afford it. They didn’t ask you to get married or to have a destination wedding. I paid for every single thing for my best friend in my wedding because I couldn’t imagine my day without her
I wouldn't. I'd pose it less a formal invitation, and more a "we're getting married in _____. You are more than welcome to come celebrate with us, as we'd love for you to join us, but understand if you can't." My sister technically had a destination wedding. She lives in MN and got married here in NJ. Most of our family and her friends had to travel here, and she did not pay for any of the tickets. She did have a smaller reception/party back home a few weeks later for any who weren't able to make it out.
My aunt got married in Jamaica, my cousin in Hawaii, and another cousin in Vegas. None of them held it against us if we couldn't get out there. They just had very small ceremonies and receptions. Technically, if it isn't a local wedding, people still have to travel anyway! Having a wedding here with family traveling is no different from having a wedding in Jamaica with people traveling to attend.
No, while it would be nice, it just isn’t practical (or financially possible) for most. I had a destination wedding and we did not pay for our guests to attend. We got married while on a cruise in the Bahamas. We didn’t have as many guests as we invited but still had 65 people attend. It helped that we sent out save the dates a year in advance to give everyone time to plan and save if they wanted to attend.

No. It is not your obligation but expect some guest to not be able to attend just incase they cannot afford it.
