Destination Wedding Favors

I’m having a destination wedding in Puerto Rico. It’s going to be in December so I’ve been trying to order everything online and have it shipped to a family member. I’ve been struggling finding an Etsy vendor or any that would ship to PR because they don’t consider it being a US address but international, even though PR is a US Territory. Anyone had any success ordering and shipping to PR? I’m trying to order a bulk order of personalized wedding fans

    Can you get them shipped to you and then ship to PR yourself? It sucks because you’d have to pay shipping twice, but if you find a vendor who does free shipping, then you’d only need to pay when you send them to PR.

    That was going to be my last option and shipping to PR is not as easy since it can take a few weeks for a package to arrive. Thankfully one of the sellers that I reached out was able to change her setting and added PR and I was able to get the order done.

    We had our wedding in PR! Honestly I would recommend just bringing them with you when you go. I think we went down with four suitcases and two of them were full of favors and decor stuff. By simply paying for a couple extra bags we saved a whole lot of money in shipping PLUS didnt really have to worry about where they would be stored or if that included an extra cost (which storing at the venue was an additional 25 per day).

    I'm from PR, just happen to live in Illinois at the moment. I'm having items shipped to my aunts house since half my family lives there. There are a few items that I'm taking but the bulk of things is going to her house.

    Hey! Veronica it's great that you are planning a destination wedding in Puerto Rico and facing shipping issues for personalized wedding fans. Try these tips: contact vendors directly, specify Puerto Rico as a US Territory, explore local options, use forwarding services, and check reviews for vendor success stories. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
