How to Marry in Trinidad & Tobago

Tobago with its gentle laid-back atmosphere is perfect for a quiet destination wedding, whereas Trinidad is ideal for a more "traditional" Caribbean beach wedding. With a year-round tropical climate Tobago boasts a large rainforest in the north of the island, which has led to a growing ecotourism industry. The coast is inviting with many white sand beaches and coral reefs which make wonderful wedding idylls!
