The Lodging Question Solved With a Destination Wedding Venue

Professional Wedding Planners have always known that one of the most important parts of planning a bride and groom’s special day is the lodging of out-of-town guests. With the precision of a ballet, planners must often perform a delicate dance shuffling guests from the hotel to the wedding venue, and then must coordinate their return late in the evening following a gala reception. And when guests are housed an several different hotels located miles from the ceremony venue, it usually requires the use of a fleet of limos or even tour buses to get everyone into the wedding on time.

One way Wedding Planners work around this dilemma is to book the ceremony at “destination” wedding venues. Most of these types of facilities offer a package that includes not only the ceremony venue and reception hall, but also guest accommodations in the same location. When this type of multi-purpose venue is used for a wedding, the travel hassles of moving guests to and from outlying hotels can be eliminated.

When brides think of “destination” wedding sites, those that come to mind are usually located in expensive locales such as Hawaii, the Mexican Rivera or the Caribbean. These far-flung venues – while exciting for the couple to be married, often create logistics and cost problems for guests and family. This is why smart Wedding Planners have learned to look in the bride and groom’s own back yard for venues that can serve all of their needs.

Jet Lag – How Can Air Travelers Reduce the Risk When They Fly?

Many medical  experts have found that air  travelers usually experience a worse bout of jet lag when they fly from east to west.  In general, the more time zones that they cross, flying from east to west, the more severe their symptoms of jet lag will be.  However, passengers will only experience a milder problem with jet lag when their air flights are going from west to east.

Travelers can fly north and south, or south to north, for thousands of miles without experiencing any jet lag. But as soon as the pilot of the airplane starts to fly in an east to west direction and crosses more than one or two time zones, they can experience jet lag.

Passengers will not usually experience the symptoms of jet lag until they exit the plane.  That’s the time when their biological clocks will start to make internal adjustments inside their bodies to coincide more closely with the local time at their destination.  If air travelers cross one, or even two time zones, their bodies can usually adjust very quickly.  However, if a traveler is in poor health or not feeling well before the flight, jet lag can compound the problem.

The following information may lessen the effects of jet lag when you fly.
