Aruba Weddings and Honeymoons
Aruba's romantic environment of sunset lit beaches and private beach coves have long endeared the island as a honeymoon destination. Now both the celebration of the honeymoon as well as the actual wedding ceremony and reception can also take place on the island. As one of the hot spots for both weddings and honeymoons in the Caribbean, couples seeking romance in Aruba find they come away with their fair share of memorable moments to accompany the wedding and honeymoon photos that will soon be carefully pasted in the albums back home.
Civil marriages are performed in the salon of the historic City Hall building in downtown Oranjestad. After the legal marriage, couples may also wish to enjoy a religious ceremony, either in one of Aruba’s churches or synagogues, or even with a blessing held right on the beach.
Visitors wishing to carry out their civil marriage in Aruba must provide an apostille report from their country of citizenship. If either party has been divorces, he or she must submit a copy of the divorce decree; if one has been widowed, a death certificate must be produced. Other documents necessary for the ceremony to be carried out include copies of birth certificate, with the raised seal, and valid passports from the couples’s witnesses. All documents must be faxed for review and then submitted by courier at least one month prior to the desired wedding dates.
Ceremonies are performed Monday through Friday from 10:00am - 12:00pm and 2:00pm to 4:00pm and on Saturday by special request and upon availability. After the wedding comes the unforgettable honeymoon and Aruba perfectly fits the bill for this very special occasion. The majority of Aruba’s resorts participate in the one cool honeymoon program where couples receive the red carpet treatment right from the start with the resort providing a complimentary bottle of champagne of wine, complimentary souvenir gift, complimentary honeymoon doorknob hanger and a certificate for a free night during the following year's return stay.
