Caribbean World magazine names Antigua and Barbuda best wedding island of the year
St. John’s, Antigua (November 18, 2005) – Readers of Caribbean World magazine recently voted the twin island destination of Antigua and Barbuda as best wedding island of the year.
The British travel and lifestyle magazine honors leaders of excellence in hospitality and service in a variety of categories, including best honeymoon island, best luxury resort, and best sailing and yachting island.
Although Antigua and Barbuda remains untouched and unspoiled, it boasts international acclaim: world-class sailing and diving, sensational resorts, and premier cuisine, making it one of the world’s top wedding and honeymoon tourism destinations. The pristine beauty of this tropical paradise gives couples a chance to escape from everyday life while the soothing trade winds spread romance throughout the island.
Antigua and Barbuda offer the perfect setting for romance to flourish whether couples seek privacy, beauty or adventure in their wedding locale. Couples may opt to exchange vows on one of 365 sugar-white sand beaches as the clear turquoise water gently laps the shores. Alternately romantics may opt to say “I do” against a backdrop of the most breathtaking sunset, made even more spectacular by the legendary green flash that accompanies that last dip of the sun.
Many of the resorts on the islands offer couples the expertise of an on-site coordinator who arranges all aspects of the ceremony or honeymoon, thereby eliminating much of the prenuptial stress many betrothed couples experience. A variety of packages offered can create the perfect intimate or extravagant event.
