Our team typically sees the average price of a destination wedding is around $17,000 with about 60 guests.
If you’re hosting a large destination wedding, that price will naturally increase.
One of the incredible benefits of a destination wedding is that many resorts, like Sandals, offer a complimentary wedding package.
The price of a Sandals wedding package may vary based on a couple’s preferences and the chosen resort location.
Sandals offers a complimentary wedding package for stays of three nights or longer, but certain government fees are not included.
Basic Package Costs:
Add-On Experiences and Services:
Averages and Personalization: Couples typically spend between $6,000 and $15,000 to personalize their experience with extras beyond the basic offerings.
These customizations may include decor enhancements, private receptions, and entertainment options.
Additional Considerations:
Sandals Resorts offers comprehensive wedding packages for couples looking to tie the knot in a picturesque Caribbean setting.
The packages typically include the following elements:
Additional inclusions and enhancements vary by package and length of stay.
For extended stays, couples may receive premium perks such as complimentary room upgrades or a candlelight dinner.
Couples need to note that government fees for marriage licenses are not included in the packages and vary by island.
Couples should speak with their Sandals wedding planner for detailed information on local fees.
Most of the destination weddings our team helps plan are between 15 to 100+ rooms, so the Bliss package tends to be quite popular.
The Bliss wedding package is designed for between 6-25 rooms.
There are several benefits to the Bliss package, such as complimentary rooms, photo and video credits, bouquets and boutonnieres, and many inclusions during your reception.
The package varies ranges from $2,500 (up to 20 people) to $3,850 (up to 50 people).
If you’re planning a destination wedding for about 50 guests, this is a great all-inclusive package to consider.
With 50-140 guests, you’re going to want the Epic Wedding package at Sandals Resorts.
The Epic wedding package includes many of the same components as the Bliss package but is an even stronger offering.
For example, the Bliss package offers a $200 credit towards the Ultimate videography package but the Epic package offers a $500 credit.
Other benefits like a two-hour DJ during your reception, upgraded chiavari chairs, and more make the Epic wedding package a great package for couples planning a larger wedding.
The Epic wedding package starts at $7,600 (up to 70 people) and goes up to $13,900 (up to 140 people).
