Destination weddings are soooooo simple because they do thousands of weddings in a year and they know what they are doing. You'll be faced with questions like "Honey, do you like the square cake or the round cake? Do you want Chocolate or Vanilla?" You can easily plan your wedding in one night.
No stress.
No one else has a job to do. Everyone can kick their feet up and have a great time.
The flight down with your buddies getting loaded is like being on a school field trip....with booze.
Local wedding venues will shut the party down by midnight. Destination wedding - the party goes ALL night.
Seriously, having a local wedding is a dick move. At least with the destination wedding, all the people who don't really give a #### can just say "sorry man, we can't afford it".

Completely agreed, the gf and I have already decided this would be the way we'd probably go. As long as you're not going to get offended if any particular person outside of your immediate family can't make it (which really, you shouldn't, or your destination wedding IS a dick move), I think it's definitely the way I want to do it.
Just thinking about having to go through all the pomp of your average local wedding, and having to be sincere, emotional and romantic in front of like 70+ people makes me so uncomfortable and awkward. The less there, the better.
