3 Unique Locations for your Dream Destination Wedding

By Lauren Ertl | November 30, 2022

Love is always in the air in ‘Beautiful by Nature’ Turks and Caicos Islands! This dream destination which boasts 365 days of sunshine throughout the year is synonymous with romance and is the ideal location to say “I do!”

The islands have no shortage of amazing venues to host your bespoke destination wedding; from luxury boutique resorts and stunning villas to our award-winning beaches, coves and idyllic creeks. In fact, the Turks & Caicos has been awarded the Caribbean’s Most Romantic Destination by the World Travel Awards in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. 

Couples escape to the Turks and Caicos Islands to avoid a traditional ceremony and our destination serves as the perfect backdrop. While most couples will opt for a scenic beach ceremony, here are three unique locations to host a wedding in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Mudjin Harbour

Located in Middle Caicos, the largest island in the Turks and Caicos Islands chain, Mudjin Harbour offers breathtaking views of an unspoiled beach, Dragon Cay and dramatic limestone cliffs. The elevation on the hill provides the perfect celebratory stage, featuring several shades of the ocean’s blue in the distance

Private Island

For a truly private ceremony, our boutique islands and cays are the perfect location. Our private islands: Parrot Cay, Pine Cay and Ambergris Cay are ideal for an intimate destination wedding and honeymoon. These ultra-luxurious resort islands offer world-class services and amenities in a dreamy and unforgettable uber-exclusive setting. Escapism never sounded so good!

On The Water

It goes without saying that the Turks and Caicos Islands is renowned for its warm, tranquil, crystal clear and unspoiled waters. Why not tie the knot on the water in a yacht or catamaran? Your nautical nuptials will be a memorable experience for you and your guests.

In the small residential community on Florida’s In the small residential community on Florida’s Gasparilla Island, a long tradition has been held. On the eve of a wedding happening on the island, brides are given a bottle of gin to hang upside down in a tree, which is rumored to provide clear skies on the couple’s wedding day in Boca Grande. Natalie and Steven helped carry on this sweet tradition and can attest to two things. One: the tradition really works. Two: Gasparilla Island is one heck of a special place.

As a people pleaser, it was so hard to say “no” to requests for plus ones at our destination wedding. So, here are five thoughtful response examples to kindly deny someone a plus one to your wedding: “Due to limited space, we can only accommodate our invited guests.” “We’re aiming for a more intimate gathering, so we’re keeping the guest list tight.” “Unfortunately, due to our budget constraints, we can only invite the people on the list.” “We’ve made the decision to keep the guest list focused on family and close friends to make it a more personal celebration.” “Unfortunately, we can’t accommodate an extra guest. We’ve had to make some tough decisions about our guest list due to venue limitations.” Additionally, it may be wise to express your enthusiasm to have them in attendance with something like - “I hope you understand. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!” Obviously, you’ll want to customize these responses to fit your speech/texting style, but they can act as inspiration. Share this post with a people-pleaser friends who’s planning a wedding. They’ll thank you, trust me! 😉
