Question: What is a Weddingmoon?
Answer: A weddingmoon is an out-of-town wedding at a Sandals all-inclusive resort the Caribbean that combines a wedding and honeymoon. Sometimes known as a destination wedding, the weddingmoon is a term that was coined by Sandals, which hosts many weddingmoon couples and their guests every year.
Other Caribbean all-inclusive resorts such as SuperClubs also host destination weddings, but the term weddingmoon is a Sandals trademark for the exclusive use of that resort group.
What Does a Weddingmoon Cost?
The cost of a weddingmoon can vary dramatically. Couples who book a seven-night stay or longer at Sandals are entitled to a free weddingmoon. Normally, these events are fairly modest, and the resort will upsell couples who want more out of a free weddingmoon than:
- Services of a wedding consultant

- One 5"x7" wedding photograph

- Bride's bouquet and groom's boutonniere
- Wedding cake
- Marriage officiant
- Champagne and hors d'oeuvres reception for bride and groom plus two guests
- Honeymoon dinner for bride & groom
- Continental breakfast in bed
