From powder white beaches to rooftop ceremonies with ocean view panoramas, Barbados offers beautiful venues for any wedding occasion. The island’s luxurious resorts offer many attractive venues and great wedding packages. Our selection of properties in Barbados offer a range of packages to cater to size, budget, and taste. From small boutiques to well-known all-inclusive resorts, there's something for everyone. Packages range from simplicity to grand affairs. Choose your package to suit your needs, whether it be an intimate ceremony for 2 with a private romantic dinner, a gathering of 10 with an elegant beachfront dinner and bouquets and photography, to a larger party with a photobooth, dance floor, rooftop cocktail and starlight reception, with a romantic video of your ceremony. For our Barbados properties, you’ll be holding your wedding events in a resort, and will have an experienced wedding coordinator helping you every step of the way.

For a symbolic or legal wedding in Barbados, you need to arrive 2 business days before your ceremony, and your arrival day counts as day 0. For a legal wedding, you’ll need to go off-site for your license application once in destination.

Your legal fees, such as the notary and translation costs are not included in your wedding package, however some resorts will include the services of a judge or minister in their more comprehensive packages. Legal fees in Barbados are reasonable. Your dedicated in-resort wedding coordinator will help you with the legal arrangements. After your ceremony, you will be sent your notarised and translated marriage license to your home address. This can take 8 – 12 weeks to come through.

In Barbados, same-sex marriages are not allowed. This means resorts are not able to hold symbolic, nor legal ceremonies. If you're looking for a legal same-sex wedding in the Caribbean, Mexico would be the best choice, followed by Costa Rica. Symbolic ceremonies are also available in the Dominican Republic in selected resorts.

A selection of resorts will offer you and your party a form of group benefits. This can range from free rooms and room upgrades, extra events for your wedding, or even credit towards your wedding. A selection of resorts will do this for you, without any need for a group booking deposit, or everybody needing to book at the same time. It’s easy and convenient for you and your friends and family. If you’re looking to launch your own wedding website, we can offer you a selection of prices and special offer details to share. To receive these benefits, you’ll often need to avoid certain dates as usually Easter and Christmas week would be excluded, and you and your guests need to be booked through the same company.

Please keep in mind, several resorts on the island are boutiques or of an intimate size. They may have restrictions on party size as to not disturb other guests or may have a smaller room count than you and your party need. 

Speak to a member of our team about your party size and needs and they can advise what’s best for your wedding.

Getting to Barbados is simple with multiple direct flights a week out of both London Heathrow & London Gatwick to Bridgetown. You’ll often fly out in the daytime and fly back to the UK on an overnight flight.
