A destination wedding in the Poconos conjures images of the outdoors, tranquility, and relaxation, three things every bride, groom and guest hopes to get out of a vacation. This makes the Pocono Mountains an ideal destination for a wedding no one will forget.

The Pocono Mountains have always been the ideal location for romance. Nestled in the mountains, the Poconos offer privacy and the opportunity to get away from the world. Images of bathtubs shaped like champagne flutes may float in your mind, but the Poconos offer much more to couples seeking the perfect destination wedding.

From a logistical standpoint, the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania are a great choice for east coasters. It's easy to get to, fairly inexpensive, doesn't require passports or special wedding requirements that out of country destination weddings might require, and caters to couples, newlyweds, and honeymooners. The Pocono Mountain website reminds those interested in a wedding in this beautiful mountain range that they must be eighteen, currently single or possessing a divorce decree, provide identification, and pay for their marriage license in person (the fee should be less than $50). Nothing to it!

Wed underneath a backdrop of changing colors in the autumn, or with nature in full bloom in the spring. Weddings at Mountain Springs Lake Resort offer honeymoon accommodations for the bride and groom, as well as spacious cottage offerings for guests. Both the ceremony and the reception can take place at the resort, meaning that the guests won't need to leave the resort once they arrive. The resort makes things easy during the planning stages as well, providing wedding information packets, information on their preferred vendors and photographers, and suggested floor plans for the event. Like all destination weddings, they make it easy for the bride and groom to celebrate their special day instead of worrying about the small details.

The Pocono Mountains offer guests so much to see and do, as well. From hiking and cycling to swimming and boating, no one will run out of things to do. Often seen as a romantic couple destination, there are also places welcoming to children and families as well. No one will be left out when joining you for a destination wedding in the Poconos.
