Destination Weddings in VenezuelaA wedding in Venezuela is always a colorful and festive event. Many couples like to add touches of red and black to their wedding outfits, for a real Latin feel. During the ceremony, the bride and groom make promises of love and mutual care, which they traditionally sing to each other.
The wedding reception is a happy celebration, given rhythm to by distinctive Venezuelan music. You and your guests will dance, celebrate and enjoy delicious Venezuelan cuisine until the early hours! It is customary for the bride and groom to sneak away from the party without being seen - this is considered to be good luck.
Venezuela is a land of overwhelming and highly diverse natural beauty. The south of the country is covered with the tropical rain forest of the Amazonian jungles - into which it is possible to trek. This contrasts with the stunning snowcapped Andes mountains in the east, amongst which many small traditional villages are nestled.
The Gran Sabana plateau in the east has an almost eerie beauty, with its strange flat-topped mountains. The quiet of this region is the antithesis of the Angel Falls, the highest waterfall in the world. An amazing vista, the water descends from 16 times the height of the Niagara Falls. Venezuela is also home to the Río Orinoco which, at 1333 miles long, is the third longest river in South America. Its island delta is home to the Warao people.
The Venezuelan capital, Caracas, is a lively and cosmopolitan city of over 5 million inhabitants, with many historic buildings including a 17th century cathedral. Of course, the Caribbean coast of the country must not be forgotten, with its idyllic palm fringed beaches of white sand, perfect for soaking up the sun and indulging in water sports.
A dramatic, beautiful and fascinating country, Venezuela is a wonderful place to celebrate your wedding. |
