Why you should choose Sandals I do’s

Planning a destination wedding? As you decide between the various destinations and venues, you’ll want to consider what brings you the most value, both financially and emotionally. Whether you have an intimate elopement or a huge wedding bash, a tropical destination wedding can provide a wealth of benefits that make it worth your while. Our friends at Sandals Resorts pride themselves in giving couples the most quality inclusions, the most private honeymoon suites, spacious open-air ceremony and reception venues, 5 Star Global Gourmet and the most customizable destination wedding experience – what’s not to love? Keep reading for the top 10 benefits of a destination wedding at Sandals Resorts.

1. Free Wedding + Complimentary Inclusions

Stay a minimum of three nights and everything you need to host a wedding is included complimentary at Sandals Resorts: From picturesque wedding venues, and a one-hour wedding cocktail reception, to services such as breakfast in bed, a full-service gift registry, preparation of marriage documentation applications, and more. Best of all, you’ll receive a personal Wedding Entourage that will assist you every step of the way. They will organize all of the details with the resort before you arrive and throughout your stay – all 100% complimentary and stress-free!

2. Free Perks for Your Group

The more guests, the more “Bells & Whistles” Sandals Resorts will throw in to blow out your week-long celebration. The inclusions that you receive if you host a wedding with more than a dozen people will give you tremendous value! Based on the number of rooms that are a part of your reservation, you’ll unlock a set of free and upgrade options to choose for your event. Think a 5-star reception dinner, themed events, or even a private catamaran cruise.

3. Customizable Wedding Options

Having a destination wedding at Sandals can be customized to your liking! There are a wide variety of wedding decor rentals conveniently available at the resort, so you can have the unique wedding day you always dreamed of. Plus, the food and drinks are up to you too! Choose from an array of different cuisines and craft bars.

4. Unique, Open-Air Venues

At Sandals Resorts, it’s not one venue fits all. Choose the backdrop that fits your wedding vision: White sand beach, garden gazebo, poolside terrace, outdoor courtyard, seaside deck, or the ballroom are all options complimentary with your stay. Or, depending on the resort, you can upgrade to wed in an over-the-water chapel or gazebo, on an off-shore private isle, sky terrace, or on a championship golf course.

5. Perfect for Intimate or Large Group Celebrations

No matter the guest list, there are options for every couple’s needs. Whether you’re planning an elopement, mini wedding with 10 guests, or a large wedding with 40 guests, Sandals offers the ability to connect and celebrate whether guests are with you in-person or virtually.

6. Private Honeymoon Suites

One of the best benefits of a destination wedding? After I do, it’s all about the honeymoon! Start celebrating immediately (while your guests enjoy a vacation of a lifetime) and soak up all the 5-star luxuries Sandals has to offer. Opt for a Love Nest Suite, suites so exotic, so private, and so indulgently romantic for the newlyweds.

7. Guidelines Put into Place for Health and Safety

At Sandals resorts, the health and safety of their guests and employees have always been top priority. Travel and relax safely thanks to additional protocols and guaranteed cleanliness standards in place from touchdown to takeoff.

8. Wed with Confidence

Plans change…and that’s okay! Sandals offers a Flexible Payment Policy so you can be confident in your final wedding plans, with the option to cancel up to 45 days prior to your event.

9. Full-Service Wedding Planning Made Easy

In addition to your Wedding Entourage, you’ll have access to Sandals’ Digital Wedding Planning Tool, a Virtual Wedding Design Experience (a 60-90 minute virtual meeting to participate in the live planning process), a free honeymoon registry (guests could contribute to excursions or dinner), and wedding website (to keep your guests up-to-date). Just pack your beach-ready dress and the team will do the rest!

10. Moments with Picturesque Backdrops

You’ll want to savor these memories forever, and the backdrop doesn’t get more beautiful than Sandals Resorts. Choose from on-site photography and videography services or local photography partners available to capture all your precious moments.
