Your legal fees, such as the notary and translation costs are not included in your wedding package, however some resorts will include credit towards your legal fees if you stay for 7 nights or more. Legal fees in St Lucia 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 St Lucia, same-sex marriages are not permitted. 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.

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.

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, generally 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.
