We got married in the Dom. Republic. Only invited close relatives and really close friends, didn't have expectarions on who came. We ended up having 13 people in total. We had a blast.
We did however have a small social when we got back to have the relatives and friends who couldn't make it.

Wouldn't care. I have an aunt that couldn't make it because she was taking her grandchildren to Disneyworld the same week. If you're the type to get your nose bent out of shape for that, you shouldn't have a destination wedding.

Buy a card. For a DW your presence should be the gift. (play on words fully intended). Different if you're a parent or sibling, but that's about it.
