What makes Aruba special compared to other Destination Wedding locations?
Weather: Aruba is the sunniest island in the Caribbean. The weather, its beautiful landscapes, and unique natural elements make it the perfect place to have a celebration. Though Aruba has some hills, Aruba doesn’t really have any high mountains to trigger rainfall. More importantly, Aruba is located outside of the hurricane belt, and it has never been directly hit by a hurricane. This fact makes Aruba a reliable place for a wedding.
Between October – December it randomly rains.
Safety: The United Nations classified Aruba as a low crime country with plenty of education opportunities. Aruba is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands which means Aruba adopts the same welfare, social, and educational systems. Everyone in Aruba has health insurance, children can study abroad, and oftentimes educational opportunities are funded by government scholarships. According to The World Bank, Aruba has been ranked a “high income” Caribbean island. Because of the high quality of life here, and the opportunities presented to children, reducing crime threats.
Convenience: It is extremely convenient to travel to Aruba because there are multiple direct flights available from all over the world. During the low tourist season which is between the months of September through mid December, flights are incredibly affordable.

The weather is nice all year round. Therefore, anytime of the year is a great time to get married in Aruba. However, to avoid the crowds and save some cash, we recommend planning your destination wedding in September or October when there are less visitors and flight prices and hotel rates are likely to drop.
