Enter Kayla and Brandon. College sweethearts whose love defied distance when Brandon graduated early and moved over a hundred miles away. Every weekend, he crossed the country with playlists and podcasts as his co-pilots just to see her. For them, the question wasn’t if they’d get married after Kayla graduated, it was where.
Their search for the perfect wedding destination led them to Jamaica and eventually to the most desirable resort on the island: Sandals® Dunn’s River. This all-new destination offered a private beach facing the sunset, just a short trek from the natural wonder of Dunn’s River Falls. It was an all-inclusive getaway where their love would be the center of attention.
From the moment their plane touched down, they felt the vacation vibe take over as the pilot announced over the loudspeaker, “Welcome to Jamaica. The local weather is a steady 80 degrees Farenheit, with a touch of island breeze. We hope you enjoy your stay in paradise.”
Months of collaboration with the Sandals wedding team led to this moment. Kayla and Brandon selected the Jamaican Tropical Hues inspiration, a tropical palette paired with customizable details as the theme for their wedding. Think wicker-box lanterns, vibrant greens and white Birds of Paradise, a seaside dining setup styled to perfection, and a flower-draped triangle altar glowing in the golden hour.
The ceremony was barefoot bliss. As the sun dipped below the horizon, their nine-year love story crystallized in a setting as beautiful and timeless as their connection. Sandals took care of every detail, leaving Kayla to decide only on which bathing suit to wear to the pool. She indulged in a spa day of personalized wedding treatments, setting the tone for a week of celebration and relaxation.
With family and friends by their side, everyone enjoyed the ceremony and got a proper vacation to write home about. The innate flexibility of the Sandals experience, elevated all-inclusive amenities, bottomless top-shelf liquors, and bites for every craving, made it enjoyable for all. After days of celebration and Caribbean vacationing, Kayla and Brandon’s family returned to the States.
Kayla and Brandon stayed on-resort, seamlessly transitioning from vows to honeymoon. Their retreat? The Coyaba Sky Villa Rondoval, a suite so stunning it felt like a destination in itself. With its private stargazing loft, soaking tub, and infinity-edge pool, it became their sanctuary for days suspended in bliss. Their butler team made every moment indulgent, effortless, and unforgettable.
Later that week, standing atop Dunn’s River Falls, shrouded in a newlywed glow with the dense jungle behind them and roaring waters below, Kayla and Brandon felt the quiet joy of a choice well made. Their love, nine years in bloom, had found the perfect place to flourish and reveal its full beauty.
Kayla and Brandon didn’t just say “I do” — they lived it.
