Bridal

For the ultimate in exclusivity, Jade Mountain is a new breed of hotel within a hotel – a true find for those who like to be ahead of the game. High on Mourne Chastanet, overlooking St Lucia’s Piton World Heritage site on the Caribbean Sea, Jade Mountain is the perfect setting for a dramatic hideaway wedding. This is a true getaway with no telephones, radio or television in the suites. The bold architecture with individual bridges leading to 24 extraordinary infinity pool suites and columns reaching towards the sky makes Jade Mountain one of the Caribbean’s most mesmerizing experiences. Add the romance of a wedding, and this becomes a truly magical setting. Expect grand sweeping spaces, with your bedroom, living area and extravagantly sized private infinity edge pool gliding into one another to form an amazing platform floating in space, with the fourth wall entirely missing. Imagine floating in your infinity pool at sunset surrounded by softly flickering candles. Bride and grooms to be will feel truly special at Jade Mountain from the minute they arrive at its own exclusive reception area. There is concierge service throughout. Integral to the suites is the Jade Mountain Club – a casual space in which to enjoy drink or a light meal – hovering in space between the large pool and the Celestial Terrace. Couples can pamper themselves in the Kai en Ciel boutique spa or enjoy treatments in the privacy of their own suite.
