Thinking about a dream wedding in the Bahamas?
Then Martha Stewart may have the answer for you!
As of January, 2010, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (MS) will offer custom-designed destination weddings at any of the luxury Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts in the Bahamas and Caribbean under the Martha Stewart Weddings label.
Guests may book their dream wedding at the beautiful Sandals Royal Bahamia in Nassau Bahamas. Sandals also is scheduled to re-open Emerald Bay in Exuma Bahamas in January 2010.
Emerald Bay, which sits on the most beautiful piece of Bahamas real estate with a gorgeous powder white sand beach, was previously operated by Four Seasons.
Stewart, founder of MSLO, said consumers have turned
to the Martha Stewart Weddings magazine for inspiration and advice relating to every aspect of their day for years.
Services range from covering the ceremony and reception
decor to bridal bouquets and centerpieces to wedding cakes and favors.
“Now, we are delighted to be offering our unique ideas and beautiful
designs to a wide range of consumers who wish to celebrate their special
day at a Sandals or Beaches resort," Stewart said.
Here's something to chew on.
According to new research from Martha Stewart Weddings and The Futures
Company (formerly Yankelovich), destination weddings are on the increase big time.
Thirty one percent of brides age 21-30 plan to have a destination wedding. Previously, the statistic was thought to be 10 percent to 20 percent of all weddings.
Martha Stewart Weddings at Sandals Resorts will be available in five themes with a la
carte items or "extras" — such as personalised cake toppers, welcome gifts and candy buffets — available for couples to make
their weddings unforgettable.
In November 2009, Martha Stewart Weddings magazine will publish its very first destination weddings special issue magazine.
MSLO also plans to introduce a variety of craft programmes and camps at Sandals Beach resorts in 2010.
Guests will be taught crafting skills and techniques by trained experts using
Martha Stewart Crafts products.
