Just imagine saying I do on a shimmering white sand beach wash by spectacular turquoise waters, or in a lush tropical garden to the tantalizing sounds of the steel pan. Or to the innocent voices of children’s choirs as they sing to you all deck-out in their school’s uniform.

And as the sunset cast its golden glow across the Caribbean Sea you and your guest settle down to a sumptuous Barbadian meal in what could only be describe as paradise.

You celebrate your special moment with your family and friends in paradise assured that they are going to be talking about your memorable event for years to come.

Barbados Wedding Venues

Barbados is a strong Christian society well recognized for having an abundance of churches. It is for this reason that most weddings on the island are traditional church weddings. One of these Churches is the Holetown Parish Church. This historic church located on the seaside in St. James is ideal for hosting a traditional wedding.

The Beaches — with over 70 miles of superb white sand Beaches it is not difficult to understand why the Barbados beaches are among the hottest spots for weddings by most visiting couples. Also among the Barbados wedding hot spots are the island lush tropical gardens. Many of them with spectacular views of some of the most magnificent turquoise waters you can imagine.

These gardens provide the perfect ambience for you to say… I do amidst a wide variety of exotic palms, orchids, Helicon and ginger lilies.
