You can go almost anywhere in Florida and only be a few miles away from a beach which is why this state is so popular for beach weddings.

Jamaica

A Caribbean paradise is what best describes Jamaica and why a lot of couples fly there to get married. Resorts like Sandals cater to engaged couples. All it takes is one phone call and they can make all your wedding dreams come true.

Hawaii

Besides Florida, the second most popular place for a lot of US residents for a beach destination wedding (and those outside of the US) is Hawaii. Hawaii is a chain of islands which could host any kind beach wedding. The most popular place in Hawaii for beach weddings is Kauai.
