Caribbean wedding spots
From Coastal Living
For a dreamy destination wedding with crashing waves and beautiful vistas, check out these gorgeous Caribbean hotels and resorts. (And say, “I do!”)
Panoramic Caribbean Sea views and lush surroundings define this off-the-grid resort, which offers a luxurious escape on serene Virgin Gorda. Accessible only by boat or helicopter, the island offers a picturesque setting while the expert team at the resort provides a custom wedding experience for everything from an intimate affair for two to a large group gathering.
For a more intimate wedding, look to Zemi Beach House, a luxury beach hotel tucked on six beautiful acres of bay-front land. Clear, gentle Shoal Bay serves as a stunning backdrop for a beach wedding; if you’re looking for something a little more distinctive, ceremonies can also take place at the hotel’s spa, an authentic 300-year-old Thai house that came to the island in the ’80s.
W Retreat & Spa – Vieques Island
On an island just off Puerto Rico’s eastern coast, this retreat sits in the midst of paradisiacal Caribbean wilderness, with quiet beaches, wild horses, an the brightest bioluminescent bay in the world. A palm-lined cliff known as Paradise Edge is a prime spot for the ceremony; the resort also has an adults-only beach, a spa with a wide range of offerings, and a restaurant serving local cuisine.
Sustainability is key to this charming hillside retreat, which offers an amazing culinary experience (think true farm-to-table food at the reception) using food grown on the property’s more than 400 acres of farmland. The Farm overlooks the Caribbean Sea, and wedding events can be held anywhere from the center of the farm to a pool deck overlooking the water.
