Dreaming of a destination wedding? The team at Kempinski reveal why the Seychelles islands offer the perfect backdrop for your nuptials
Located 1,000 miles off the east coast of Africa, the Seychelles islands are famous for their secluded beaches and breathtaking scenery, earning them a reputation as the romance-capital of the Indian Ocean that is well deserved.
Here, glittering turquoise oceans lap gently against palm-lined beaches, making this archipelago one of the world’s leading venues for destination weddings and unforgettable honeymoons.
That is why countless couples flock to the islands each year to exchange vows and begin their journey as Mr and Mrs with an intimate island-escape.
The Seychelles offers couples a vast range of experiences, from exhilarating scuba diving adventures and helicopter island-hopping, to pampering and unwinding at some the most luxurious resorts on earth.
One such resort is Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare. Located on the exclusive south-end of the archipelago’s main island, Mahé, this rustic-chic hideaway is an ideal destination for those looking to get off the tourist track.
Set in a secluded bay in dazzling surroundings of untouched, natural beauty, this beachfront paradise offers couples a private haven for romantics at heart or an activity-packed getaway for the adventurous duo.
If you are planning a wedding abroad, Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare and its team of experienced wedding planners will ensure your Big Day is everything you dreamed it would be.
The team is committed to making each moment of your wedding day extraordinary and offers couples a range of exquisite wedding packages and bespoke venues when they choose to begin their lives together in this magnificent corner of paradise.
Whether you dream of getting married beneath swaying palm trees with the ocean as your backdrop or surrounded by verdant tropical gardens, there really is no place more beautiful to begin your lives together.
For couples in search of pure luxury and pampering, Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare offers four decadent restaurants, an award-winning spa with luxurious couple’s treatments, and an 800m stretch of remarkably beautiful beach.
As it is the only hotel in the bay, the area receives very few outside visitors, and guests are able to relax and enjoy their time on the beach in relative seclusion.
However, if you and your significant other are looking to do more than just recline in a sunbed while taking in exquisite views of glittering turquoise seas, you are sure to be impressed by the facilities offered at the watersports and recreation pavilions.
An onsite dive centre and complimentary snorkelling gear will assist you in exploring the Seychelles’ abundant marine landscapes, while a well-equipped gym and outdoor sports courts join an Olympic-length swimming pool in the resort’s artillery of fitness apparatus.
A short hike through dense jungle will guide you to a vast granite elevation for an unforgettable hill-top yoga class, overlooking the resort and tranquil Baie Lazare.
For intimate, hassle-free elopements or vibrant tropical celebrations with your nearest and dearest, contact Kempinski Seychelles Resort today to begin planning your world-class island escape.
