My favourite type of wedding would have to be beside the ocean.
I love a beach wedding. Give me the heat, give me the sea, the sand between my toes,
it’s the dream. But at TUI, there is something to really suit everybody.
We’ve got 12 destinations to choose from, so it depends on how far you’d like to travel and how
much they want to spend, so that has some impact on the location of their wedding, as well. So,
if you’d like to go somewhere a little bit closer, I’d maybe recommend the Mediterranean: Turkey,
Cyprus, or Greece but if you’d like to travel further afield, you can go as far as Mexico, maybe
the Dominican Republic, and even Jamaica as well, so there’s lots of opportunity for everybody.
We didn’t want our family to have to do a long journey, a long,
long flight, so Cyprus was a good place for us, and it all started from there.
We also live in the destinations where we are planning the wedding,
so we can help the couple with absolutely anything they need.
And if they wanted to incorporate some of the local customs or traditions,
to make it that little bit more authentic, they can do that.
We even have destinations where if you want to beat the winter blues
you can go to one of our winter destinations.
That’s great if you’re looking for something alternative in the cooler months. It’s
always nice to have that, you know, the seasonality, the changes in the season.
There were loads of options that weren’t there.
There were loads of options, you know, for all budgets.
We would always ask a couple exactly what style of wedding they are looking for. Whether they
have a religious background, if they want something in a church.
You know if you’re Catholic, Anglican, so on and so forth,
you can make it really personal to your beliefs.
But, if you don’t want a religious wedding, maybe go with a civil ceremony.
I pronounce you husband and wife.
If you want something intimate, just the two of you,
you want to keep it very low-key, we can do town hall destinations.
But if they want to go big and go large,
and have the ceremony for 80 people, we can do that as well.
You can also have a religious renewal of vows if you want.
And also blessings, in case you just want a nice
opportunity to get your family together to celebrate the time that you’ve had.
We were both adamant that we wanted to have our ceremony overlooking the sea.
If you’re looking for something alternative, well you name it, do you want to get married
on a pirate ship. If you want exclusivity, you know, you can charter your own yacht.
That was like an incredible experience.
This was a sunset cruise, and we had all of our drinks included, and food,
it was the perfect way to end our big day.
We’ve got lovely venues in the middle of the countryside,
you know which is very unique, a little bit like Mamma Mia!
We’ve a boho beach wedding, maybe you fancy a large hotel.
We chose the hotel by the sea.
We had the beach right on our doorstep.
We love the ocean, we love the sea, we love the sand.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was just great.
We chose the gardens because it was a little bit more private.
A lot of people do like the luxury with having really nice hotel destinations, and have the
luxury of these great All Inclusive hotels. So you know, that’s just a few of the things that we do.
From Corfu to Cancun, We’ve lots of different destinations that you can have same-sex weddings.
It maybe that legally you can’t get married in your own country,
so there’s destinations where you can.
You just need to go on the TUI website, and you’ll get all the information there.
We’ve got lots of options with wedding celebrations at TUI.
Once the couple finds the location that’s perfect for them,
and the style of wedding that they want, we can really make that dream a reality.
