Weddings in Sri Lanka

Weddings in Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka, the tropical teardrop island at the toe of India, is one of the most exotic and beautiful islands in the world. With its mystical ancient cities, thick jungles, miles of palm-fringed beaches, unique culture and genuinely warm and hospitable people, this unforgettable destination is the perfect location to make seal your love.

If you want to stay on and explore this lush island, extend your trip to include a dream Sri Lanka honeymoon. Unwind in a luxurious spa, watch baby elephants play at Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage, and go diving among mysterious ancient shipwrecks.

Here are some of our favourite Sri Lanka resorts to make your vows:

•   Recently refurbished Jetwing Sea sits on the beach in Negombo and boasts wondrous ocean views – perfect for watching the sun go down.  Our wedding package here includes dancers and drummers, and 42 photos from your special day.
•   Fortress is an exquisite boutique property that echoes Old Ceylon style. Marry here and enjoy a romantic breakfast on your balcony the next morning.
•   Mount Lavinia sits on a stunning promontory and oozes old-world charm. Wedding couples enjoy a ‘going away’ by vintage car and savour a lobster dinner, plus Champagne breakfast the following day.
