This means you are travelling a long way from home to do the wedding.
It could be overseas or interstate or in a neighbouring country or county etc.
Mine have all been within Australia which is of course a very broad canvas.
I have photographed weddings in Perth on the Westcoast and Canberra and Mollymook Beach on the East coast.

Bright on the edge of the Australian Alps and Broken Hill in outback NSW and also Bindara Station on the Darling River in outback NSW.
I have also photographed 2 weddings in the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria.
You will need more thought and preparation if going to an overseas destination.
So what are the considerations when you take on a wedding that has this amount of travel.
1. Mode of transport. Borrowing a car or hiring one.
2. Timetable. Must inclue mobile contact details of all the key personnel.
3.Equipment required and how to get it there.
Can you use less if needing to go by plane?
4.Accommodation
5. GPS and Maps if driving there.
6. A local person assigned as your guide. You will easily get lost if you are in unfamiliar territory.
7. Your quote for your assignment needing to cover all transport and accommodation.
8. Access to money via credit card.
9. Travel insurance.
10. A mobile phone that will work in your location.
11. A knowledge of local customs and a translator if needed.
12. Supplies of any medication you take and some form of letter from your doctor authorising you to take it.
Thus list is not exhaustive. It is a little bit more complicated if you are travelling outside your country.
Remember if you fail to plan you plan to fail.
