Get Married Or Honeymoon In The Beautiful Virgin Islands.
The U.S. Virgin Islands is a paradise with so much more to offer than the traditional beach vacation. Visitors wishing to immerse themselves in a profound cultural experience can enjoy historical tours, culinary encounters, artisan fairs, parades, storytelling, and other special presentations.
Walking tours on St. Thomas and St. Croix feature diverse architecture, evidence of nations that colonized the islands in the 17th and 18th centuries. If you’re feeling energetic, walk one of the many street steps, the most famous being the 99 steps on St. Thomas, a common way of getting to higher ground.
Your cultural journey will continue with a look at the life and creations of artisans and crafters who earned a living creating functional and decorative pieces. Restored great houses, now serving as museums, like Haagenson House on St. Thomas and Whim Museum on St. Croix, preserve this past, displaying masterfully created mahogany pieces, delicate linens, and original art. Local craft cooperatives, art galleries, and artist colonies present the works of today’s tradition-bearers. Annaberg Plantation ruins in St. John’s National Park offers daily cultural demonstrations, including cooking the old-fashioned way – on a coal pot over an open flame.
Escape the traditional, and relish in an exotic celebration of your love. Whether you’re exchanging your vows or celebrating your honeymoon there, you’ll love the Caribbean charm and the familiar feel of the U.S. Virgin Islands. It’s not hard to see why these islands are a great choice for weddings abroad. St. Croix, St. John, and St. Thomas all operate under U.S. laws, language, and currency, but each island also has a flavor all its own.
Discover the beauty of all three islands, or pick from these three beautiful honeymoon places. Whether you’re in search of wedding destinations to exchange your vows or want a picturesque view for your honeymoon romance, each island offers you a variety of experiences as individual and romantic as you are.
Let your imagination go wild with possibilities. Pick a quiet dune, secluded cove, or palm-laden shore. Altogether, you’ll find more than 87 beautiful beaches to choose from including Magens Bay on St. Thomas and Trunk Bay on St. John, both consistently rated two of the top ten beaches in the world by Condé Nast. Additionally, Chenay Bay on St. Croix is one of the best-kept secrets of the Caribbean.
