Honeymoons in St. Lucia are extremely popular judging by the fact that we have won the coveted ‘World’s Leading Honeymoon Destination’ from the World Travel Awards 9 times in the last 14 years. In fact, we have won this award every year for the last 5 years!
So what makes St. Lucia honeymoons so special? Well, let’s start with our spectacular natural beauty plus the fact that getting here is a bit more difficult and expensive than going to Mexico, or even some of the more northerly Caribbean islands. As a result, we are considered a very exotic destination and therefore the perfect place for a honeymoon.
Then add to this the fact that Sandals Resorts has 3 all-inclusive properties here and that Sandals is a couples-only resort. So with more couples looking for a St. Lucia honeymoon, the votes pushing us to the top just keep piling up.
In addition to this, many couples elope to Sandals for St. Lucia weddings, as their wedding can be held for free once they stay at the resort for a set number of days. And with so much to do here, choosing to stay a few days longer is always very attractive.
With so many weddings and honeymoons happening here, destination wedding and honeymoon photography has become very popular and with the advent of digital photography it’s easier than ever to get and share your great island photos. Some hotels offer on-site photography, and in addition, there are a large number of competent professional wedding and honeymoon photographers available to you.
While it may be wise to go with hotel photography, be sure to look for independent reviews of both your hotel photography and photography from any of the professional photographers whose services you may consider. This way you will be well informed and you will be able to make the best decision, which is the most important thing since you will have to live with your photos, good or bad, for the rest of your life.
And with so many honeymoons and weddings in St. Lucia, “Trash The Dress” photography is gaining popularity. This is a truly exciting, high-energy twist on the age-old tradition of wedding photography. And the good thing about this is that since the trashy dress photo shoot comes after the wedding, there is no need to be formal and careful, but you are free to let your hair down…
