St. Lucia: The Perfect Place for Destination Weddings

A destination wedding is becoming the hot new trend for couples who want to break away from the ordinary and get married in an exciting and adventurous way.  Destination weddings can be performed anywhere from the beach at a Caribbean resort to a cruise ship in the middle of the ocean. Celebrations can be large and elaborate with all of your friends and family or a more intimate and romantic setting for just the bride and groom.

 

 

These non-traditional weddings are generally less expensive than a traditional wedding, and are also considered to be less stressful because the ceremony, flowers, photographs and reception are packaged together. A lot of the small details are handled for you so there is less to worry about and less stress!

 

The gorgeous island of St. Lucia is an ideal location for a Caribbean wedding. The island is perfect for a variety of ceremonies whether you are looking to exchange vows on the beach, in the mountains or in a church. A unique setting option for a St. Lucia wedding is in the garden of an old estate house that has a historic feel to it, with trails that lead through a tropical forest and ends at a beautiful waterfall. St. Lucia offers a hint of everything you could ask for when planning a destination wedding. White sand beaches, mountains, quiet towns or elegant cities, it’s all there!

 

There are several St. Lucia all inclusive resorts available for you and your guests to stay at either during your wedding or during your honeymoon. Most of the resorts will provide a wedding specialist to help in planning the wedding and to make sure everything is perfect on your special day.  

 

 

 

Rendezvous is a resort dedicated solely to couples. It is the perfect place to spend your first week as husband and wife after the fun and excitement of your St. Lucia wedding, without the distraction of children or singles. There are plenty of activities to choose from including water sports, land sports, scuba diving, spa packages and a sunset cruise. Fine dining is an essential part of the romantic experience from a candlelit dinner at The Terrace restaurant to a private table for two on the beach. There is plenty of great island entertainment after dinner as well. The Terrace Bar is the place to mingle and enjoy your favorite cocktail with music and dancing each night.

 

Ladera is another resort perfect for your honeymoon in St. Lucia. Located in south western St. Lucia, this small intimate resort has only 6 villas and 21 suites. Each room has its own unique design including a private plunge pool or villa pool. All of the rooms have an ‘open wall’ allowing for a breathtaking view of the Piton Mountains or the Caribbean ocean. Ladera offers many activities such as rainforest tours, horseback riding, and a chance to walk in a volcano! Whether you are on your honeymoon or spending a week with family or friends, there is plenty to do and see to make your St. Lucia vacation an unforgettable one!
