I am confirming the procedure here
I have not yet confirmed St. Vincent and the Grenadines's marriage procedure with the registry itself, so I am not quoting timings or costs for it. Tell me your date and I will confirm it and come back to you either way. Everything on the travel side, the flights, the rooms and the transfers, I can arrange today.
Best suited to: Island-hopping weddings, and anyone chartering a boat for the day.
What I can do today
The travel side is ready to go, and I can bring in a planner. The licence I will confirm for your date before either of us commits to anything.

- Accommodation, including a block of rooms held together for your guests
- A local planner for the day itself, brought in and managed by me

You don’t have to do this yourself
I can handle the licence, the documents and the travel for a wedding in St. Vincent and the Grenadines for you. I work out what your country and your destination actually ask for, get the paperwork in order, and keep it moving, so you are not the one chasing offices and re-reading forms to figure out what happens next.
A few corners of St. Vincent and the Grenadines
Somewhere to start if you have not settled on a spot yet.
Tobago Cays Marine Park
A cluster of small, uninhabited islands and cays ringed by a horseshoe reef, protected as a marine park and one of the Caribbean’s best-known sailing and snorkelling anchorages. Turtles are a regular sight in the shallows.
La Soufrière
St. Vincent’s active volcano at the island’s northern end, last erupting explosively in April 2021. A demanding hiking trail leads to the crater rim when conditions allow.
St. Vincent Botanic Gardens
Established in 1765, the oldest botanical garden in the Western Hemisphere, in Kingstown. Home to a breadfruit tree descended from Captain Bligh’s original 1793 shipment from Tahiti.
Falls of Baleine
A waterfall on St. Vincent’s remote northern coast, reachable only by boat, tumbling into a rocky pool a short walk from the beach landing.
Marrying in St. Vincent and the Grenadines
How long do we have to be in St. Vincent and the Grenadines before we can marry?
Every country sets its own waiting time, and I have not yet confirmed St. Vincent and the Grenadines's with the registry itself, so I am not going to quote you one. Tell me your date and I will confirm it and come back to you either way.
What do we need to bring to St. Vincent and the Grenadines?
That is part of what I am confirming for St. Vincent and the Grenadines. What I can tell you now is that the form your documents take usually matters as much as having them, which is why it is worth asking early rather than close to the date.
We are CARICOM nationals. Is it easier for us in St. Vincent and the Grenadines?
Getting in is easier, and staying long enough is simpler. The marriage licence itself is the same process as for anyone else who does not live in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, so do not assume free movement covers it.
Does marrying in St. Vincent and the Grenadines let us live there?
No. Marrying in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, or marrying a citizen, does not by itself give you the right to remain. That is a separate immigration question. If moving there is the real plan, tell me at the start and we sort both together.
Looking at more than one country? Compare the twelve and I will help you pick.
