    Get Married in Jamaica for Free: Sandals' Sweetheart Wedding Offer (a $1,250 Value)

    Jamaica weddings are back — and Sandals is making it awfully easy to say "I do." Book a qualifying 2027 stay at one of three Sandals resorts in Jamaica, and your wedding comes free: the Sweetheart wedding package for up to 50 guests, plus waived marriage license and administrative fees. All told, it's a $1,250 value handed to you for booking the honeymoon you were already planning.

    We help couples plan Sandals weddings and honeymoons all the time, so here's the straight rundown — what you get, who qualifies, the real fine print, and how to lock it in before the booking window closes.

    What the offer is

    When you book a 5-night-or-longer stay in a Club or Butler category room at Sandals Montego Bay, Sandals Caribbean Cay, or Sandals South Coast, the Sweetheart wedding package is included free. Sandals is also waiving the $250 Jamaica marriage license and administrative fees, along with the usual $250 non-refundable wedding deposit.

    The package covers up to 50 people, so it works whether you're eloping as two or bringing the whole crew. All three are adults-only, couples-only resorts, so the entire trip is built around romance rather than split between families. If you want the numbers behind Sandals weddings generally, our guide to real costs & what's included breaks down every tier.

    Here's the actual list, grouped by when it happens:

    Before you arrive

    • A dedicated wedding planning team
    • Gift registry and wedding website templates
    • Preparation of your marriage-license documents

    During your stay

    • An onsite wedding team handling coordination, setup, and breakdown
    • 15% off one select Red Lane Spa service each for the couple

    Your wedding day

    • A $200 credit toward select photography packages
    • A $200 credit toward select videography packages

    At your ceremony

    • A picturesque ceremony location
    • Pre-recorded musical accompaniment
    • A dendrobium orchid bouquet and matching boutonniere (white or magenta)
    • White cushioned chiavari chairs for up to 50 guests

    At your reception

    • A private one-hour cocktail reception for up to 50: chef-inspired hors d'oeuvres, a sparkling wine toast, a signature cocktail, non-alcoholic beverages, and linen-draped cocktail tables
    • A two-tiered white fondant wedding cake with an orchid topper

    On your honeymoon

    • A honeymoon dinner with sparkling wine in a resort specialty restaurant
    • A honeymoon package: chilled sparkling wine and a sweet treat, breakfast in bed one morning, and a romantic turndown on your wedding night
    • A $100 credit toward a private candlelight dinner, scuba/snuba, or a beach or pool cabana

    In other words, the essentials of a beautiful beach wedding — and a few honeymoon touches — are handled.

    Who it's a great fit for

    Couples who want a low-stress destination wedding and honeymoon in one trip. Couples who like the all-inclusive model, where meals, drinks, tips, and most activities sit in one price. Couples bringing anywhere from just the two of them up to 50 guests. And couples who can hold the ceremony on a weekday between 9 and 2 — that's the one scheduling constraint worth checking with your people early.

    Because it requires a Club or Butler category room, it also suits couples who want a more elevated room experience — Butler service is Sandals' top tier, and it's the level most couples tell us they'd repeat.

    The fine print worth knowing

    • You're booking a 2027 wedding: travel dates run January 2 to December 20, 2027, and you must book by December 31, 2026.
    • It applies only to new legal weddings at the three named resorts, in a Club or Butler room, 5 nights minimum. Vow renewals don't qualify.
    • Ceremonies are Monday–Thursday, 9 a.m.–2 p.m.
    • The offer is combinable with standard resort offers and Loyalty & Travel Desk discounts, but not with other wedding packages, and it isn't transferable. Unused inclusions can't be swapped for cash or credit.
    • A couple of the credits (photo and video) must be applied before you travel and before final payment — so timing matters, which is exactly where an advisor helps.
    • Jamaica has legal marriage-document requirements; your planner and advisor will walk you through them.

    How to lock it in

    1. Have us handle it. A Honeymoon Guru advisor will confirm the current terms, match you to the right of the three resorts for your style and budget, book the wedding and the travel, make sure the time-sensitive credits get applied correctly, and flag your celebration to the resort — all at no cost to you. Advisors are paid by Sandals, not by you.

    2. See it straight from Sandals. Prefer to read the official offer and full terms first? You can view the promotion on the Sandals site.

    The booking window ends December 31, 2026, and the best resorts and wedding dates tend to go first — so there's a real advantage to starting early, even if your date is still loose.
