A Wedding Day in Barbados

by Mark Hammerton

It is a little while ago now, but we ourselves were married in Barbados. Our own ceremony was by the beach on Alleynes Bay and we celebrated afterwards with a truly memorable meal at The Cliff. Barbados is perfect location for an overseas wedding; the administrative process is straightforward, there is a very wide choice of venues, excellent caterers and, of course, one of the most stunning backdrops for photography on your special day.

We are pleased to have been involved with the organisation of a number of weddings on the island. In some cases we have simply looked after the accommodation needs of wedding guests, block booking a number of villas to accommodate the wedding party. In others we have booked some of our larger villas as wedding venues and together with local wedding planners have helped arrange the whole event.



We offer a number of villas which work particularly well as wedding venues. These include:

Fustic House, St Lucy 

Mullins Mill, Mullins

Nelson Gay, Speightstown

La Maison Michelle, Lancaster Ridge 

Tom Tom, Westmoreland 

Marsh Mellow, Weston 

High Trees, Gibbs

We would be happy to advise on the most suitable venue for your own event and can also put you in touch with our partner for wedding planning on the island, Malissa Blackman who runs Weddings by Malissa – one of the best known and most trusted wedding planners in Barbados. Each property has a guest capacity limit and there is often an additional event fee charged equivalent to one night’s rental but we will confirm costs at the time of your enquiry.


On a recent visit to the island we had the chance to meet up with Malissa at one of our villas, Elysium, where we were organising a wedding for one of our clients. During our site meeting, which also included the villa’s local managers, Malissa’s thoroughness and professionalism shone through – there is no doubt that the organisation of your special day is very safe in her hands!

If you are planning to tie the knot in Barbados, a villa-based stay can not only be relatively cost effective but can also be more flexible and more private than a hotel-organised event. Please ask us for advice as we would be happy to pass on the benefit of our own experience and help you plan your perfect wedding  in Barbados.

Mark and Lisa Hammerton

We are Mark and Lisa Hammerton and we are lucky enough to spend our time organising villa and apartment holidays to the wonderful Caribbean island of Barbados.

We have been involved with the travel industry for most of our working lives but fell in love with Barbados after many visits and ended up buying a second home there.

We would love to talk to you about the island and our selection of wonderful properties and, as our priority is matching the right property to your requirements, we will always be open and honest in what we have to say.

PRICE PROMISE
Promise
We have selected the properties we offer based on personal visits and a wealth of local knowledge and we hope to offer the best possible service before and during your stay. All rental prices are set by the property owners and you shouldn’t find the same property at a lower price elsewhere. Unlike some operators, we always include local taxes (VAT and Barbados Government Room Rate Levy) and local service fees in our rates so it is worth checking this when making comparisons.
We are aware that some operators offer discounts and promotions from time to time and we don’t want you to ever feel as though you are paying over the odds by booking through us – it’s not what we’re about. If you do find the same property at a lower price elsewhere please do let us know and we promise to match the price. Our aim is to be fair, open and honest at every stage as we look after your holiday arrangements.
