"The Honeymoon Capital of the World" is one of the many descriptors for beautiful Niagara. Historically, Niagara was described as a romantic getaway of unparalled delight - and today, young honeymooners agree. Whether it's the effect of the positive ions spraying out from the mist of the Falls or the beautiful weather in spring, Niagara has become the honeymoon destination of choice for millions of lovers from all over the world.
Historical Niagara-on-the-Lake has become a favourite setting for weddings of all kinds. From the very traditional Church wedding in one of the oldest churches in Ontario or in the middle of a vineyard, couples love the idea of a Niagara-on-the-Lake wedding. And what a beautiful and romantic setting for your honeymoon - a cozy little B&B or one of Niagara-on-the-Lake's classic hotels all offer honeymoon packages for that special event. Vintage Hotels offers a fairy tale setting that combines Old World sophistication and spectacular natural surroundings for that special day.
If it's a Fallsview wedding that catches your fancy, that too can be arranged at one of Niagara's elegant Fallsview Hotels. The Konica Minolta Tower offers two delightful wedding packages. The Embassy Suites and the Fallsview Sheraton Hotels both cater to the Bride and Groom with packages including ceremony, reception and honeymoon suites. Over 50 hotels in Niagara offer wedding packages in keeping with the tradition.
For the unconventional and smaller celebration the charming little Wedding Chapel on the Lane or the Fabulous White Wedding Chapel at the Inn provide that intimate experience with all arrangements taken care of.
Who needs to go to the tropics to get married on a sandy beach? Sherkston Beaches on Lake Erie have special bridal packages for the bride that wants to tie the knot on the waterfront with either the sun or the moon as the lighting. Every detail is taken care of and they also provide reception services right on the beach.
Honeymooners can also receive an Official Niagara Falls Marriage Certificate at Niagara Falls Tourism. Marriage licenses are available at the City of Niagara Falls and are good for three months from date of issue. There is no waiting period.
The tradition carries on and every year thousands of honeymooners from all over the world come to Niagara to stand in front of the spectacular Cataracts and make wishes for a bright and happy future together.
