The following guide contains some useful information about a Wedding, or retying the knot (aka, Vow Renewal), or an Elopement, at one of the Sandals or Beaches Resorts.
Island Wedding Requirements
If you’re thinking about a Destination Wedding, here are the requirements to get married on the different islands where Sandals and / or Beaches resorts are located. Each island / country has its own fees and requirements for “residency period” prior to having a legal wedding. The good news is that the “residency period” includes just being there for vacation!
