When
planning a Caribbean Wedding
you have a lot of choices
to make. One of the most
important decisions is what
are the legal requirements
and how do they affect you
when you are back in the
country where you reside.
For this reason, we recommend
that brides and grooms consider
a small civil service ceremony
at home prior to traveling
to your destination. Once
you arrive, you can be married
again with the beautiful
gown and all the trimmings.
It's double the pleasure
and it simplifies things.
We
talk to brides all the time
and it is amazing how different
weddings are planned. Some
want it as simple as a wedding
for two on a beach with
an extended stay. No friends
or family. Some plan to
invite 150 guests and hope
that most of them come.
The key to planning your
perfect wedding is to start
early. There are big advantages:
-
You
lock in the resort and
the resort price for up
to one year in advance.
This is important because
costs always go up and
rarely go down.
-
You
can provide a save-the-date
card to your guest list
and they can plan in advance
to attend this special
occasion. Most guests
arrive the night before
and stay a minimum of
3 nights.
-
Know
what to ask for. Depending
on your budget you should
consider a causal buffet
dinner the night before.
If your budget doesn't
permit this, then consider
asking your hotel to work
with you on a "Welcome
Reception". Most
hotels offer this service
to hotel guests in some
form such as a "General
Manager's Cocktail Party"
and a wedding party certainly
deserves something similar.
-
Depending
on the island and the
resort you choose there
are many options for your
honeymoon. You can stay
at the resort where you
marry or you can "island
hop". For instance
if you are planning a
ten-day stay, stay the
first three at the hotel
where you wed. Then choose
a second hotel or villa
for the remainder of your
stay. The Caribbean offers
so many choices and opportunities
to do this and ideally
you would choose one that
is a short drive away.
-
If you are a super romantic,
you will want to check
out local area restaurants.
There are so many romantic
places in the Caribbean
that you will want to
experience the "local
side" too. Plus,
you will find most of
the islanders love romance
and when they find out
you are on your honeymoon
you will get special attention.
It's a "See it like
a native" approach
that will be very memorable.
