Whether you dream of a barefoot ceremony on a deserted beach, tying the knot beneath the dramatically beautiful rainforest canopy, or simply want to find a naturally serene spot to unwind together, Tobago delivers the ideal backdrop to say yes to forever with that special someone. 

Every bride wants to have an unforgettable wedding that'll be on everyone's lips for years to come. And while Tobago offers a plethora of iconic wedding locations including balmy beaches and gorgeous villas, there are just as many unconventional yet stunning wedding locations in Tobago.

With the help of some of Tobago's wedding planners and photographers, we've listed six unique and picteresque locations to say 'I Do" in Tobago. 

 

1. Scarborough Botanical Garden  

Scarborough Botanical Gardens

Tie the knot under the Gazebo or the outstretched branches of the huge Samaan Tree surrounded by year-round greenery, in Scarborough, the Capital of Tobago. Take your “first” walk together down the palmed isle with your partner inhaling a fresh breath of air.

The rugged landscape and the small gazebo with a panoramic view of the bay at the fort are ideal for your small and intimate wedding ceremony. A late evening ceremony offers the opportunity to capture stunning sunsets while sealing the kiss as two becomes one.
