St. Martin weddings


St. Martin and St. Maarten are actually two different halves of the same island, and St. Martin destination wedding photography is a thing of beauty. You can't really tell when you pass back and forth across the border between the Netherlands and France. St. Martin weddings are characterized by a heavy French influence and elegance. You'll find French cafes and bistros and bakeries, delicious French and Caribbean food, and lots of high-end fashion and luxury. Combine that with some of the prettiest beaches in the Caribbean, and St. Martin becomes a fantastic option for a destination wedding. In fact, many people say that the best restaurants in the Caribbean are in the St. Martin towns of Grand Case and Marigot.


It's probably easiest to fly into the Dutch side of the island, into Princess Juliana Airport (airport code SXM), which is among the busiest in all of the Caribbean.


Wedding photography on St. Martin beautiful, but the marriage requirements are a little arduous. Nevertheless, don't let that deter you. You're supposed to be on St. Martin for a month before getting married, but most people either get married at home in the States, or they head over to St. Maarten, the Dutch side, for their civil ceremony (and then come back to St. Martin for the main ceremony). Please check out our St. Maarten wedding photographer pages for more information on marriage requirements on St. Maarten.
