10. If you are having a destination wedding, add something typical and local from the place you are celebrating it. For example, in Puerto Rico there you must taste: “Lechon a la Vara and Arroz Mampostea’o”, which translates to Roasted Pig and a combination of a traditional rice and beans.

Do them all or pick your favorite, however you decide I am sure your guests will remember for a long time the details that you did to make it unique for them!
