What's better than getting married in the Caribbean..... Getting married in the newly designed overwater chapel at Sandals South Coast in Jamaica! With crystal clear Caribbean waters providing the perfect backdrop for your "I do" moment, the overwater chapel provides the ultimate wedding location! Offering panoramic views with the optional open-air venue, seating for loved ones, glass floors to see the blue waters below, and plenty of ways to transform the space to make it unique to your wedding theme! The wide beach adjacent to the chapel is the perfect setting for dinner and end the evening by dancing under the stars! "Sandals South Coast is also going to make it possible to tie the knot overwater with its new over-the-water wedding chapel, with a breathtaking 360-degree, panoramic water views and a glass floor aisle.
