As the largest English speaking island in the Caribbean; Jamaica boasts beaches, waterfalls, mountains, lagoons and a friendly population who embrace visitors and tourists. There really is nothing quite like the bustle, gorgeous scenery and culture that emanates from Jamrock. In fact, the Tourist Board’s motto is – Once You Go, You Know!

Wonderfully; Jamaica has something for everyone and there are so many stunning wedding locations in Jamaica that you will be completely spoilt for choice. Whether it’s a beach wedding on the pristine beaches of a resort town or in a hidden rugged lagoon; an upscale wedding in a Great House or nestled in a mountain retreat, or even a family-friendly wedding amidst dolphins; if you can dream it, it’s possible on the island of Jamaica.

In addition, Jamaica is an island which provides amply for both honeymooners and guests who have travelled to the wedding from abroad. From Ritzy to Roadside (posh to rustic); there are several sides of Jamaica to enjoy – from new age spas to reggae concerts; food festivals to para-sailing.

On a practical matter; Jamaican weddings are legally valid worldwide, and no blood tests are required. Jamaican wedding ceremonies are conducted in English and can be both civil and religious. Jamaica is well served by direct flights from a variety of hubs including the UK, Canada and the USA.

Jamaica’s reputation of being a premier wedding abroad location is well deserved and getting married in Jamaica may just be the best decision you ever make.
