Couples looking to marry in the US Virgin Islands need to fill out an application for marriage license and show a photo ID. Divorce and death decrees are also required if applicable. For additional information on destination weddings in St. John, check with your Certified Destination Wedding Specialist. 

Travel Information

Travel Documents

A passport is not required for US Citizens. If you are a citizen of the US, visit travel.state.gov for more information on travel documents needed. For Canadian travelers, visit travel.gc.ca for relevant travel information.

Language

The official language of the US Virgin Islands is English.

Currency and Tipping

The official currency of St. John is the US dollar.

Climate & Beaches

Climate

St. John has a tropical savanna climate. Summer temperatures (June to September) average around 88 degrees F, while winter temperature (December to April) dip to 73 degrees F as a low.

Beaches

St. John is known for its beautiful and private beaches, so the options are plentiful. Trunk Bay is quite literally picture-perfect as St. John’s most-photographed beach. If you’re looking for water sports, Cinnamon Bay has plenty of excursions, including windsurfing, kayaking, and snorkeling. Honeymoon beach is (of course) romantic and has great access to local hiking trails.

Activities & Attractions

Activities

There’s no shortage of pretty Caribbean beaches in St. John, so carve out time for snorkeling, sailing, or lounging on beaches like Maho Beach and Trunk Bay. If you want to browse local art and folklore, try visiting the Elaine Ione Sprauve Museum. Hiking is a great way to explore, so try the Francis Bay or Reef Bay trails, which are unspoiled island refuges. In town, there are great shops to peruse, ranging from specialty spice shops to pretty bamboo crafting studios. Island-hopping is also a popular activity since St. John is so close to St. Croix and St. Thomas.

Nightlife

Enjoy the view

Let’s face it: there are those particular travelers out there who think they want total seclusion on their getaway, until they realize they’re completely and utterly bored and dissatisfied. If this sounds like you, St. John destination wedding is a great bet. With miles of secluded beaches and 60% of its land covered in pristine national park, the island is perfectly remote and uninhabited. Still, after you’ve finished snorkeling, hiking, or sunbathing in complete privacy, you can retire to the Island’s many luxuries- think upscale boutiques and beautiful waterfront restaurants.
