Jamaica Wedding Packages

Our properties in Jamaica offer a range of packages to cater to size, budget, and taste. Most resorts will offer a complementary package, when booking a certain room category and when staying for specified number of nights. These package inclusions vary per resort, but often cover the basics of a ceremony, the bouquet and boutonniere for the wedding couple, a wedding cake and champagne toast for a handful of friends and family, special touches such as a spa discount or romantic dinner for the 2 of you. For those wanting to go all out, packages are available that include a cocktail party and sit-down dinner reception, plus a video of your ceremony and your hair and make-up artist. There really is something for everyone, and an array of venues you can make your own. For our Jamaica properties, you’ll be holding your wedding events in the resort, and will have an experienced wedding coordinator helping you every step of the way.

For a symbolic wedding in Jamaica, you need to arrive 2 business days before your ceremony, 3 days for a legal ceremony, and your arrival day counts as day 0.

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 Jamaica are very 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 Jamaica, 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.

Many 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. 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 Jamaica is smooth and easy, with multiple direct flights out of UK airports. There are currently various flights into Montego Bay, as well as flights into Kingston, depending which area you choose for your destination wedding. For those travelling out of Ireland, there are connecting flights via the USA. You’ll often fly out in the daytime and fly back to the UK on an overnight flight.

Most resorts in Jamaica offer the all-inclusive experience with all the entertainment and activities you’d need. The destination is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere, rich history and unique activities, not to mention the stunning beaches famed by 007! Why not arrange a Bob Marley Tour for your party, or host a costume competition between your friends and family while they zoom down Mystic Mountain Toboggan Ride. Best outfit wins a bottle of the famous Sangster’s Rum Cream!

There are many areas to explore in Jamaica, but for a wedding destination, there’s 4 areas we’d really highlight.

• Montego Bay is for those that picture themselves relaxing on a white sandy beach, with open blue skies, beautiful ocean views and delicious cocktail in hand.
• The South Coast is for those looking for ultimate luxury. The natural hot spots offer mineral baths, and excursions into nature with hikes and horse back riding across the dark sandy beaches.
• Ocho Rios is packed with attractions and luxurious plazas, complete with world-class brands as well as the traditional and authentic stalls to pick up momentous. Beautiful beaches and the chance to get and about.
• Negril offers a balance between the warm lazy days soaking up the sun, and vibrant nights out for a chance to get a feel for the real rhythm of Jamaica.
