Ceremony Venues
One of the most exciting new options for Sandals Weddings is the Over-the-Water Wedding Chapels. The above chapel is at Sandals South Coast in Whitehouse, Jamaica.

The stunning venue option has a 360-degree view and glass floor aisle. It is truly one of the most unique wedding ceremony venues you can find.
Sandals Montego Bay also has an intimate resort chapel option for your ceremony. The inside has traditional wooden pews and an elevated alter, creating a classic setting. The outside path, lined with fountains and lush greenery, ensures your walk down the aisle is beautiful from start to finish.
If you are looking for something a bit more low-key but not so traditional, opt for the oceanfront gazebo. Available at all Sandals properties except for Barbados, each gazebo features a charming vaulted roof, tiled floors, and stunning ocean views.
