Imagine with your eyes closed: the gentle island breeze, the scent of frangipani in the air, and the love of your life awaits in the clear blue Caribbean sea as your background.
Whether you dream of saying “I” with just the two of you, or surrounded by family and friends, the destination wedding at one of our resorts is intended to make every moment feel fun and fun. However, when it comes to choosing the ideal all-inclusive resort, one big question remains – sandals or Beach? Both offer a distinctly elegant wedding venue, customizable packaging and Caribbean beauty, but each accommodates a different kind of celebration. Your choices will come down to the experience you want to create, so break it down to make your decision.
Sandals vs Beach: What’s the difference?
Both the sandals and the beach bring Caribbean magic to your wedding day, but their core experience is clear. Our signature brand Sandals introduces adults-only resorts where love couples can enjoy an adult vacation. Meanwhile, the beach offers families a Caribbean playground for all ages to enjoy. Therefore, every guest list has a destination.
The same distinction also extends to weddings. Both brands offer stunning wedding venues, customizable packaging and world-class inclusion, but guest experiences vary. If you need an escape from the heart of adult love, sandals are for you. If you’re dreaming of celebrating with your loved ones in a lively, family-friendly atmosphere where everyone is invited, Beach It’s the way to go.
Choose sandals for your wedding for just the couple’s elegance
All sandal weddings are about romance. These resorts are designed for couples and make the perfect place to exchange vows and start a new chapter together. Here’s why sandals are the perfect choice for you:

Honeymoon departure
Some couples love to celebrate with their families before they run away for an adult-only honeymoon. Beach resorts are perfect for this! Whether you choose one of our locations in Jamaica or choose one of Turks & Caicos, it’s a short hop to nearby sandal facilities or another Caribbean island.
Wedding venue and customization: sandals and beach
Both sandals and beach resorts offer aisles in the aisles, our fully customizable wedding planning experience, but the venue accommodates a variety of wedding styles.
Sandal wedding venue
One of the best parts about sandal weddings is that you can choose from a variety of romantic ceremonies and reception options. Whether you prefer to exchange vows with seaside gazebos, riverside pavilions, tropical gardens, next to rooftop infinity pools, or on toes in the sands of the beach, we’re covering you. The Select Resort also has an overwater chapel with panoramic 360-degree ocean views and glass floor passages that make you feel like you’re walking on the water. How to say “I do it!”
Beach wedding venue
The Beach Resort also offers incredible ceremonies and reception options with greater guest capabilities to accommodate the whole family. Like all sandal resorts, every beach location boasts beach rituals. Beach Turks & Caicos or Beach Negrilor get married in a water over water gazebo Beach Ochorios.
