Jamaica is Paradise For Your Destination Wedding or Honeymoon
Make it JAMAICA
Words by John Roark
Whoever came up with the word paradise must have been inspired by Jamaica.
Your eyes aren’t deceiving you. The ocean really is that stunning aquamarine; the beaches actually are that sugary-white. The Jamaican people really are that beautiful and welcoming, and they really do say, “Yah mon.”
The Jamaican tourism board says it best: “Once you go, you know.”
Jamaica is one of the most enduring international destinations for romantic travel; direct flights from many U.S. cities makes escaping to the Caribbean almost effortless. When you arrive, your cares melt away and you surrender to the gentle breezes, lush tropical landscape and deep sense of tranquility. The only stress you’ll feel is in deciding how to relax.
