Is your dream to be married on the beach with sand between your toes and the ocean behind you? Or maybe in the mountains with beautiful greenery below. Many couples that dream of getting married with this type of scenery choose to have a destination wedding. Destination weddings are very popular. One of the things we love about destination weddings is that they offer you a chance to have your wedding ceremony, reception, and honeymoon all at the same time and place. Are you looking for a way to get your friends and family on vacation? What better way than to host a destination wedding. We want to share with you some of the Top 5 Destination Wedding Locations in the Caribbean.
Top 5 Destination Wedding Locations in the Caribbean

1. Bahamas
First on our list of Top 5 Destination Wedding Locations in the Caribbean is none other than the Bahamas. Made up of 700 islands, you are sure to find one that fits your needs. Two of our favorite destinations include Nassau and Grand Paradise Island. Both islands are very popular with travelers, but what we like is that they are a short plane ride from the state of Florida. We are talking under an hour! If you are looking for a more relaxed vibe to host your destination wedding, we recommend locations such as Exumas or Harbor Island which are less crowded.
2. Jamaica
Ya Mon! Jamaica is definitely one the Top 5 Destination Wedding Locations in the Caribbean. Whether you're looking to host your wedding in Montego Bay, Negril, or Ochos Rios, you can't go wrong in Jamaica. There are plenty of all-inclusive resorts to choose from and very affordable. Take in the culture by enjoying some live reggae, trying some rum punch. Consider serving Jamaican cuisine at your reception.
3. Puerto Rico
I'm a huge fan of Puerto Rico and it's culture. That's why I'm totally biased when I say it's my favorite place to have a destination wedding. Gorgeous stretches of white sandy beaches, amazing friendly locals, and plush resorts, to name a few reasons why we love this place so much. Puerto Rico is part of the U.S and does not require a passport for U.S citizens. So, your friends and family members do not have to worry about not having a passport. Oh, did I mention I hosted my destination wedding in Puerto Rico!
4. Turks & Caicos
For an upscale or intimate wedding celebration, we highly recommend Turks & Caicos as one of our Top 5 Destination Wedding Locations in the Caribbean. With over 100 islands to choose from, your expectations are sure to be met. For luxurious style weddings, try Providenciales, or "Provo" which is home to some of the most luxurious hotels. If you are looking for a more laid-back style wedding, Grand Turk is your spot.
5. Anguilla
Although tiny yet mighty. If you have never heard of Anguilla, let me tell you all about what Anguilla has to offer. As one of the best live music scenes, some of the most famous stars have performed here, such as Quincy Jones and Jimmy Buffet. Anguilla is for the couple that is tired of the party scene and wants to just "chill". With cultivated dining experiences and grand resort options, Anguilla is sure to please.
