Say I Do... on Aruba by Rosanna Mignacca
All civil ceremonies on Aruba are held in the historic Civic Town House in Oranjestad. This is required if you want to be legally married on Aruba, but is by no means a hindrance, in fact it is short and simple and part of what makes an Aruban wedding unique. After the civil ceremony, you can arrange for a romantic blessing ceremony, that is more symbolic than official, and a reception wherever you like. You have found your soul mate, and you are both ready to take the plunge. Perhaps you’re even planning your honeymoon on Aruba. Think how much fun it would be to get married here as well.
As you might guess, wedding choices are as diverse as the island itself. Whe-ther you are imagining a private affair for just the two of you, a party with a small group of friends or an elaborate gala with a large guest list, you’ll find Arubans are friendly and eager to help with your arrangements. Considering the legal requirements and the fact that you might be planning it all from afar, it’s a good idea to get in touch with an on-island wedding planner. Several of Aruba’s resorts and hotels also offer wedding packages ranging from affordable to lavish. This will allow you to simply relax and pamper yourself before the big day while someone else navigates the paperwork 76 Nights
