Bridal

Nestled on St Lucia’s scenic west coast, Marigot Bay’s crystal waters and lush leafy hillsides have made it one of the most romantic destinations in the world. This idyllic bay, described as ‘the most beautiful in the Caribbean’ by novelist James A Michener, and home to many a celebrity villa, is the ideal setting for weddings. Discovery at Marigot Bay, opened in late 2006 and a member of The Leading Small Hotels of the World’ enchants guests with 57 one, two and three bedroom suites carved into the hillside with dramatic views of the sea and beautiful yachts in the bay below. The interiors are a stylish combination of contemporary chic, state of the art fittings and Caribbean pizzazz.

Spacious and replete with unpretentious luxury, each suite boasts 300 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets, romantic voile draping, flat screen TVs, Bose surround sound music systems, walk in drench showers and fully fitted Italian designed kitchens. Add to that, the fact that half of them have a private Jacuzzi and you’ll be in heaven.

There’s fine dining by candlelight at The Boudreau, or in the privacy of your suite, champagne cocktails and a touch of sophistication at the Dr Dolittle themed Pink Snail Bar, a relaxing couples massage at the world class Lapli Spa. Or the enjoyment of a soak in one of Discovery’s ofuru wooden soaking tubs tucked at the edge of the Zen gardens, as the sun goes down.

The Magical Marigot Marriage costs US$850 and includes everything from governmental fees and registrar to bouquet, wedding cake, champagne and even cooling towels.
'Love in the Treetops' costs from US$1200
'I Do on the Dock' costs from US$1350
The six-night/seven-day 'Spiritual Connection Zen Garden Wedding 'costs from US$2500.
All above prices exclude accommodation. Seven night stays cost from £1,101pp in a resort view room with continental breakfast, private transfers, the use of a private lounge at the airport and flights.

In addition to on-property weddings, the resort uses ‘Awesome Caribbean Weddings’, one of St Lucia’s top wedding co-ordinating companies, for off-property weddings which can include waterfall, cliff top or yacht-based ceremonies.
