What should be checked before giving a wedding experience or travel voucher?

Direct answer
Check expiry, booking availability, transferability and any costs the recipients must pay before choosing a voucher.
Confirm that the experience suits their location, schedule and access needs, and give them the terms and receipt with the gift. A voucher can be inconvenient if its use requires additional travel, a fixed date or an expensive upgrade. Foreign consumer guidance explains questions to ask, not identical local legal protections. Verify the issuing business and the actual terms rather than relying on the printed face value alone.
