Hi Nori,
After surfing the net on Anguilla I just had to tell you that your site is amazing. You give more detail and information than most. I wanted to see if you had an opinion on something.
I got engaged this year on July 4. After thinking about a wedding I decided that I want to go to the Caribbean to get married.
I woke up one Sunday morning and decided to enter "romantic Caribbean weddings" into my Google search engine and was taken to your site.
I woke up my fiancee and said, "I KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO FOR OUR WEDDING!!!" He just laughed and told me that if that's what I want, that's just what we'll do!
Great job on your beautiful site!
Karen from Wisconsin!
Thank you so much for writing, Karen!
To think that I inspired another to experience an event as magical as a honeymoon on Anguilla made me warm inside...
how many other people have had Anguilla weddings or Anguilla honeymoons?

I've thought about that off and on. And... guess what?
NBC publicly answered my wonder about Anguilla weddings and honeymoons. Yes, the NBC.
The NBC television network picked Anguilla as the #1 place in the world to be wed and honeymoon.
And no wonder why...
Can you imagine a better location to spend your most special of all days?
Standing in the warm sand, with nothing but clear skies, and even clearer waters, celebrating an Anguilla wedding.
It doesn't get much better than that.
Since NBC's feature on Anguilla weddings, more and more celebrities have been wed, or have been rumored to be wed, on our shores. Pop star Amerie got married in Anguilla at the Viceroy resort (now Four Seasons). A couple of other celebrity couples had Anguilla wedding rumors, too...
Brides and grooms have many choices when it comes to planning weddings...
What do you choose?
A Four Seasons Anguilla Wedding? Cap Juluca?
A private villa, for a truly exclusive experience?

NEW Since writing this webpage, we have received many questions on the "ins and outs" of getting married in Anguilla. We sat down with Anguilla wedding experts, Blue Sea Anguilla to find out what goes on "behind the scenes" at beach weddings and to find out more about the types of wedding packages available. More on Anguilla weddings and packages.
The Anguilla Tourist Board really caters to honeymooners. So they really promote "get married in Anguilla" -- the process for Anguilla weddings runs smoothly. I guess they figure that if you come to Anguilla to for your wedding, you are not likely to decide to honeymoon in Alaska.

So it's quite easy to get married in Anguilla...
You can be wed under a special license that takes only two days to process. The two of you have to present several required pieces of identification, basically the usual documents that it takes to get into the island. And you will need two witnesses for the actual ceremony.
Pretty simple and not expensive. If you are here fifteen days prior to the wedding date, the license costs $40 USD. Otherwise, it's $284 USD.
Oh, and I just happen to have a nice starting point for you to pick a church.
Beyond that, there's many decisions to make... setting, flowers, cake, photography...
Photography
On the note of photography, there's no need to import a photographer. Anguilla has several professionals.
Derrys Richardson of Signature 7602 Studios is the go-to wedding photographer. He is one of the island's most talented and most sought after photographer.

Live Music
When it comes to live music either during your wedding ceremony or during the reception, one man to consider is DJ Kue.
DJ Kue's Setting a Wedding Mood at Four Seasons Anguilla
Originally from St. Kitts, DJ Kue is one of Anguilla's most popular DJ's leading the island's burgeoning dance and DJ scene. He has established a name for himself in two very different arenas. From spinning at the craziest parties during Anguilla's Carnival - to setting a refined tone at Anguilla's most luxurious resorts and beachfront weddings. There's no DJ like Kue!
Because there are many aspects to coordinate for an Anguilla wedding, many choose to hire an on-island wedding planner.
Unfortunately, my parents didn't know about Anguilla when they got married... seventy-five years ago. (Ha! Ha!)
Too late for them. But there is hope for the future! Anguilla truly is a magical gem. To be able to spend time here with a loved one for the first time would be unbelievable.
