Puerto Rico has done it again! After winning the title of Best U.S. Island a few weeks ago, the tropical paradise which requires no passport has done it again, snaring the #1 spot in our 10Best Readers Choice contest for Best Wedding Destination.
Our readers and visitors to this balmy, beautiful island near the U.S. mainland are obviously enthralled, which should provide more than enough motivation to get you to consider a wedding there. Not marrying soon or already married? Romantic and easy-to-reach Puerto Rico is obviously a special destination for an anniversary trip, too!
Ranking #2 for Best Wedding Destination is ever-popular Aruba, in the southern Caribbean, with its neighbor Curacao taking 3rd place. Mexico's Cancun - on the Yucatan peninsula not too far from Florida and the Gulf coast - has taken 4th place, and the Bahamas - also very near the U.S. - have landed in 5th. The top 10 winners are rounded out with Hawaii, St. Lucia, Key West, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Mexico's Riviera Maya.
While the travel experts at Tripology nominated a few northern destinations for this contest, our readers chose only warm, tropical places as the 10 winners.
