The hospitality starts right from the time the guests arrive. Welcome arrangements usually include a traditional Indian welcome with aarti, tikka and garland. Some couples even make personalized luggage tags for guests. They are usually of two colours; one for the bride\u2019s side guests and other for the groom\u2019s side guest. Also cars or vans with personal chauffer\u2019s are arranged to transport guests to the venue depending on the size of the group and the budget.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500 \\\" title=\\\"welcoming guests at a destination wedding\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/JAV_5924.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"welcoming guests at a destination wedding\\\" width=\\\"600\\\" height=\\\"378\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Couples arrange for anything from vintage cars to high end super luxury cars or even something fun like a cycle rickshaw pick up or elephant back pick up.
