This is the traditional form of a
wedding video as everyone knows it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the wedding sites on property?
Most of our resorts offer a beach, a garden and a gazebo location. The location is chosen at the time of your on-resort
consultation. Visit our website www.sandals.co.uk/weddingmoons to view samples of our wedding locations.
What flavours are available for the wedding cake?
You have a choice of vanilla, chocolate, Caribbean fruit or Red Velvet.
When will I receive my marriage certificate?
Your marriage certificate will be sent via air courier 6-8 weeks after your wedding. For European and non-UK guests, this process
may take additional time in order for further legalisation processes to be made via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
What is the best way to travel with a wedding dress?
Any arrangement for transportation of a wedding dress should be discussed directly with your airline carrier.
Is there Tuxedo rental available in the island?
Unfortunately, we do not offer tuxedo rentals on resort; however some resorts have contact information for local formalwear
providers (varies by island). Keep in mind, due to the Caribbean climates, you may want to consider a light weight alternative for
the groom.
Can I hire local vendors such as photographers, caterers and décor providers for my wedding?
The use of third party vendors for photography or other services that are offered by Sandals is strictly prohibited.
Who will assist me with my wedding once I arrive?
The Resort Wedding Team will be anxious to meet you and will be instrumental in making your dream day a reality.
When do I finalise my wedding details?
Details should be finalised 60 days prior to arrival; your Wedding Planner will guide you through this process.
Is my wedding legal in the country where I reside?
Yes, the marriage is a legally binding marriage. You should inquire with your local government regarding name change
procedures, etc. For Europeans and guests outside of the UK, further legalisation may be required for the marriage certificate in
order for it to be legally recognised by your country. This must be requested via the wedding team, and Sandals & Beaches will
absorb the cost of this for the first marriage certificate (i.e. apostille/legalisation of marriage certificate only). Non UK couples
should check full requirements (additional documentation and processes) for legalisation prior to travel via their Town Hall
Registry and Embassy.
Can I get married at a different resort than where I am staying?
No, you must get married at the resort where you are staying.
Is there a fee for the use of a personal wedding planner?
No, at Sandals Resorts, every bride and groom have their own personal pre-wedding and resort wedding planners as part of the
complimentary WeddingMoon® inclusions.
What are the different types of ceremonies I can choose from for my wedding?
A non-denominational marriage officiant customarily presides over our wedding ceremonies, but if you wish to inquire about
having a non-religious ceremony or a religious ceremony, please talk to your wedding planner.
Are there any special inclusions for weddings with a group of rooms?
Sandals offer a number of exclusive inclusions for Wedding parties that have 5 rooms or more. Please contact our Groups
department at +44 (0) 207 590-0228 (UK) to get more information.
Can I bring down my own wedding décor items and favours?
We would not recommend this as there are custom laws that will require you to pay taxes and duties on these items or they might
be confiscated if they are deemed as commercial items. If you decide to take items down with you please note that there is an
applicable set up fee. Please speak with your wedding planner for full details.
Are medical/or blood test required to get married?
No, the island of Jamaica DOES NOT require a medical or blood test.
