What says ‘romance’ more than pink sand and crystal waters? And what is more romantic than being on the beach with the one you love? Combine the answers to these two questions and you’ll get a beautiful wedding destination. The islands of Antigua and Barbuda are home to numerous legendary pink sand retreats. Barbuda’s Pink Beach is a perfect spot to celebrate your love, sharing a quiet moment as the sun hits the ocean and makes the pink sand dance with the colours of love. This beach is more secluded than others, frequently empty, and perfect for an intimate ceremony for you and your guests. Plan your vows for sunset and share your love surrounded by shimmering shades from coral to softest rose sparkling on the sand. |

In various cultures birds are considered to be a symbol of peace and luck, which is why in North America doves are traditional during wedding ceremonies. Here on the Great Bird Island, you’ll be surrounded by countless winged peace symbols. The island earns its name from the first sailors who landed there and were struck by the number of birds that greeted them.
This space is filled with the energy of liberation, calm and freedom from the noisy and routine day-to-day living. The tiny islet just north of Antigua is considered a miniature paradise and will give you a truly magical experience on your special day. It’s a sentimental spot for a small intimate wedding, where your first days of marriage would begin.
