You have chosen to celebrate the most beautiful day of your life and your dream honeymoon in a tropical destination. In these picture-perfect surroundings, your wedding ceremony is still subject to weather conditions. When you select an outdoor venue for your wedding location, the resort or hotel will provide a back-up indoor location at no extra charge. However please be aware that by booking an outdoor venue you agree to this back-up option with no recourse to the property. On arrival the wedding coordinator will discuss with you the weather forecast and agree an appropriate date if needed. It is strongly recommended that you remain flexible with your actual wedding day during your stay to ensure it will be a day to remember.
