27°CPLAN YOUR DESTINATION WEDDING IN CUBA
How you spend your wedding in Cuba is completely up to you. Sun-bathe on picturesque beaches, cool off in crystal clear waters, enjoy a sweet and tangy mojito by the pool, or dance the night away to sizzling salsa rhythms. Cuba offers relaxation, fun, adventure, and amazement for our destination wedding couples.
While planning your wedding, choose from a range of venues: beach, garden, church or chapel. Add as much tropical island feel, or as little as you like. Choose also from historical buildings, resorts and so many options to truly make your wedding day special and unique.
Old Havana
A UNESCO World Heritage site, Habana Vieja or Old Havana is a well-preserved slice of Cuban history. Stroll around the cobbled streets and gaze up at the grand Baroque and neoclassical buildings. It’s easy to imagine what life in Cuba was like 200 years ago in Old Havana.
Varadero
Varadero is one of Cuba’s most famous beach destinations, and home to one of the best beaches in the Caribbean. It stretches along the Peninsula de Hicacos, which juts into the sea off the north coast. Varadero offers many fun and interesting things for you and your guests to do: diving and snorkelling, deep-sea fishing, golf, skydiving, and day trips to cultural attractions.
Parque Nacional Vinales
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Parque Nacional Vinales is a beautiful valley in the Sierra de los Organos. Steep limestone hills called mogotes slice through the valleys, creating a dramatic landscape.
The valley floors in the Parque Nacional Vinales are agricultural areas where tobacco, fruit, and vegetables are grown. For outdoor enthusiasts, the park offers fantastic hiking and horseback riding in the hills.
