Winning award after award for being the most romantic in the Caribbean, Sandals adults-only resorts are the top pick for couples that are planning a destination wedding. Equally renowned, Beaches Resorts are some of the best all-inclusive resorts if you want to take the whole family.
Couples often combine the two to get the best of both worlds. The family and kids have the time of their lives, at one of Beaches water park resorts, while the soon-to-be-married couple stays at a nearby adults-only Sandals resort. A win-win for everyone involved!
From the awe-inspiring Sky Terrace, to the fancy over-the-water gazebos, you’ll have plenty of wedding venue options to choose from at both resorts, which will help pave the way to the most amazing destination wedding.
