Monday, August 19, 2024 Planning a wedding can be stressful, and attending one can be just as financially challenging, especially when it involves traveling abroad. Recognizing this, Airbnb has teamed up with By Rotation, a fashion rental app, to help alleviate some of that stress for British travelers. Together, they are offering a special promotion where wedding guests staying in Airbnb properties at select destinations can receive £150 in credit to rent a designer outfit through By Rotation, along with £100 in Airbnb credit for their next trip.
With summer in full swing, many couples are opting for destination weddings to take advantage of the sunny weather. However, attending such events can be costly. According to Airbnb’s research, the average British wedding guest spends approximately £661 per wedding, with a significant portion of that budget going towards travel, accommodation, and new outfits.
To help reduce these costs, Airbnb’s new offer is available to guests staying in selected destinations, including popular spots in the UK, Europe, and beyond. The top wedding destinations for Brits this year include Spain, Italy, France, Greece, and the Caribbean, among others. Amanda Cupples, General Manager for the UK and Northern Europe at Airbnb, highlights the importance of this partnership, stating, “Watching loved ones tie the knot should be a cause for celebration, not worry.
Partnering with By Rotation couldn’t have ‘married’ up more perfectly, as their fashion expertise enables wedding guests to hire their dream outfit in a more sustainable and cost-friendly way.” Eshita Kabra-Davies, Founder and CEO of By Rotation, echoes this sentiment, adding, “Weddings are such joyous occasions, and attending them should be as stress-free as possible. We believe both our brands can help with that – combining the best of travel, accessible fashion, for your wedding calendar.
” In addition to the fashion rental credit, Airbnb is also offering guests £100 off their next booking, making it even more affordable to extend their stay and enjoy a holiday after the wedding. This is particularly appealing as more than half of British wedding guests see destination weddings as an opportunity to combine celebrations with a vacation. With this offer, Airbnb and By Rotation aim to make wedding attendance more affordable, stylish, and sustainable, allowing guests to enjoy their loved ones’ special days without breaking the bank.
