Weddings in the Cayman Islands are limited only by the imagination. Taking much of the stress out of the marriage process, celebrated wedding planners in Grand Cayman and the Sister Islands provide assistance and guidance to create a unique ceremony for each bride and groom. Each host hotel or wedding service organization can make the planning process hassle-free by arranging details down to the bridal bouquet or groom’s boutonniere. Wedding service companies perform all necessary functions related to the ceremony, including musicians, catering, flowers and photography, as well as the marriage application with the civil registrar. Private ceremonies can be arranged as well as group gatherings with a marriage official.
Couples can have a more traditional wedding in a hotel, chapel or church, or they can choose a casual wedding on a beach, in a restaurant with a spectacular sunset as a backdrop, or even underwater - surrounded by coral gardens, fluttering sea plumes and exotic tropical fish as witnesses. In the Grand Old House gazebo, set in an early 1900s plantation house, wedding ceremonies can be transmitted via the Internet to those back home who are unable to attend.
The Cayman Island Department of Tourism has noticed that destination weddings are starting to embrace the culture, from using favours created by local artisans to serving local delicacies, brides and grooms are creating a truly unique guest experience. Also on the rise are 'two dress brides' where brides wear a traditional dress for the ceremony and a fun party dress for the reception and 'trashing the dress' where brides and grooms hold a photo shoot the next day and jump into the ocean in their wedding outfits!
