Do travel agents i.e flight centre, organise weddingp packages?

Question

ie. return flights, accomodation, price per person for a small number of guests. All wedding bits a pieces like celebrant, register, limo etc in Qld, Australia?

If not who does something like this?

Answer 1

Flight Centre would do the accomodation/travel part of this for you, you might have trouble getting them to do the rest.

You would really need a wedding planner to coordinate all the rest for you if you didnt want to do it yourself.  

Answer 2

It would probably be easier to work with a travel agent who can actually handle your event from beginning to end.  A lot of time using the larger companies you are treated more like a number and it's harder to communicate what you want to several different people.  I suggest locating a local travel agent or one that will take the time to listen to what you want and need.  

Answer 3

Flight centre won't do packages for weddings but will do the travel arrangements which if you are going to have a wedding you want the benefit of having 1 person do everything for you so everything runs smoothly. Here is a few websites I have been looking at:-

www.weddingdestinations.com.au

www.weddingsaway.com.au

  

Answer 4

99.9% of it!  Most resorts have a wedding package option.   Some are free, some with # of rooms clause, others anywhere from $200-$600, as some cover everything from all the flowers right down to the photographer.

I'm not too sure about Flight Centre but a regular travel agent will take care of all of this with the exception of marriage license.  That you usually must take care of yourself (with the help of the resort wedding coordinator) as a lot of very personal information and documents must be furnished in order to get the License.  You should verify what documentation is required when a citizen from your country wishes to marry in Australia so that you have this documentation prepared and avoid any disappointments.  The waiting periods differ from country to country, some it is only 1 day, others can be up to 3 months to get a license so don't wait.

Congratulations and have a beautiful wedding!
