Travel overseas to have weddings has started to become a bit of a craze. There are several reasons for this, first and foremost is the cost. You wouldn’t believe how cheap it actually is to get married overseas. You will probably not be able to take all that many people with you however. If small weddings sounds like your sort of thing, then a Caribbean island may be where you want to go?
These two islands may appear to be the obvious choices but this is exactly why I am writing this article. St Lucia is one of the most popular places for weddings abroad, and especially in the Caribbean. St Lucia has some wonderful hotels and each has its own form of Spa Treatment, anyone’s dream if you just want to relax and let everyone else do the work. Their is one resort in particular that springs to mind, the Almond Morgan Bay Beach Resort and now that it has been refurbished it is truly a wonder to behold now. Behind this monster of a hotel is a massive 22 acres of tropical forest and pathways carved through it. There are plenty of opportunities for you and family to find somewhere to host food and drinks!
Barbados is just around the corner, and the most easterly of the islands. Now I would recommend this for the younger groups, those that are going to take a few family members and some friends. Barbados is best known for it’s night life and the St Lawrence strip, where you can part all night long. The Hotel I would recommend to get married at is “The House” probably one of the most serene and surreal views and surroundings to get married in the world. This is a must look, even if it is a little pricey. Most Tour Operators will arrange for you to have the wedding ceremony for free if you stay for at least a week! They supply food and drinks after the wedding and then a list of venues you could visit to celebrate the rest of your honeymoon.
So weddings abroad, there is of course just St Lucia holidays or Barbados holidays, it all depends what you fancy!
