Awesome Caribbean Weddings

Awesome Caribbean Weddings is a small company with a fantastic brief. We are a dedicated wedding planning company based in St Lucia, which is one of the most romantic destinations in the world. Set up by two friends from England who have been in St Lucia for around twenty years, Awesome Caribbean Weddings has an extremely broad range of imaginative suggestions that will help you turn your wedding day into something exceptional and very special. Awesome Caribbean Weddings was set up in 1999 by two Englishwomen: Kayt Cooper, a fashion designer and artist, and Michele Ince, who was using her human resources background and training to work and travel the world. They came to St Lucia independently in the early 1990s and became friends. The first wedding that they organized was Michele's own. She married on an Atlantic beach, barefoot, with the distant breakers rolling in, and danced in the sand for their reception. Then, on the strength of it, two scuba diver friends asked them to arrange an underwater themed wedding for them. They organized a catamaran decorated with "seaweed" and tropical fish and a wedding arch made to resemble an underwater grotto, complete with sharks swimming by. Guests dressed to theme. There were Neptunes, a gorgeous mermaid, sub mariners and scuba divers. Kayt dyed her hair blue for the occasion while Michele had an underwater scene painted on her body. The cake was in the shape of a diving mask. Awesome Caribbean Weddings was born from there. In September 2006 Fenella Mathurin joined our team and has become a fully fledged wedding planner and the office manager.
