After I had decided to have my wedding in Africa, I didn’t want to put my research to waste, so I would share it with you. So here is a list of what the tour operators say are the best and most popular places to get married:
Barbados weddings. Barbados holidays have always been much sought after and the reasons are pretty obvious. This place is truly stunning, everything about it, the sand and the sea are perfect, and the weather won’t let you down. Barbados comes to life at night, so your reception will be amazing, not only this, but the people are welcoming and friendly. The Barbados wedding is definitely for those that want to have an exciting honeymoon, and is also relatively cheap. Looking at most of the weddings available, the hotel cost will usually cover the wedding as well, just remember to book in advance!
Wedding in St Lucia. Now for another fantastic Island in the Caribbean, this place is truly stunning. If you want a all out massive wedding and everything to be sorted out for you, the St Lucia holidays package can be modified to include; wedding coordinator, government fees, clergyman or magistrate, decorated garden or wedding site, witnesses, bridal bouquet and matching buttonhole, wedding cake and even a bottle of bubbly. St Lucia is covered in lush forest and is a truly beautiful island, not many others really compare to it, although it isnt very cheap.
Try a wedding in Kenya, Pinewood Village is the place to be. The beaches are absolutely glorious, and can you imagine yourself (the bride) being led down to the seaside by an entourage of Maasai warriors under floral archways to the marriage dais on the shore, this wedding is completely exclusive and not a single other wedding will be taking place on the same day as yours. The Pinewood Wedding Package includes a His and Hers massage, manicure and pedicure for the bride, pinhole and bridal bouquet, wedding cake, decorated beach area including bridal archway, cocktail for guests and sparkling wine for bridal couple, optional reception in Peponi Beach Restaurant, sparkling wine on ice in room, all expenses for registration fees, registrar and wedding certificate and even an escort by Maasai warriors.
Any of these holidays are fantastic; I would recommend the Kenya wedding.
