Planning a Caribbean destination wedding?



As a destination wedding travel specialist, I help couples find the all-inclusive resort that fits them—their style, their priorities, and the kind of experience they want to share with their guests.



If you're dreaming of a tropical setting with beautiful island views and the peace of mind that comes with having a top-tier wedding team by your side, a Sandals or Beaches resort might just be your perfect match.

When it comes to something as important as your wedding day, choosing the right resort makes all the difference. It’s not just about how it looks—it’s about finding a place that feels right for you and gives your guests a fun, memorable experience they'll be talking about long after the trip.



The Sandals and Beaches resorts in the Caribbean deliver all that and more. They've elevated the all-inclusive experience with unmatched guest perks and a standout wedding program that sets them apart.


NOTE: Sandals and Beaches are sister brands owned by the same parent company—Sandals resorts are adults-only, while Beaches resorts are family-friendly and perfect for groups with kids.

Besides their stunning beaches, Sandals and Beaches resorts also have some of the most romantic and unique ceremony location options, which is one of the reasons why they're the best all-inclusive resorts for destination weddings in the Caribbean.



Picture yourself getting married in a breathtaking over-the-water wedding chapel with a glass floor aisle and 360-degree panoramic ocean views. Or how about a rooftop terrace overlooking the Caribbean sea. Sounds incredible, right! It really is—and couples rave about these one-of-a-kind ceremony spots.
