Why Round Hill in Jamaica is the perfect destination wedding spot

We recently had the incredible opportunity to host a FAM trip at the legendary Round Hill in Montego Bay, Jamaica—a property known for its timeless elegance, breathtaking vistas, and unmatched dedication to personalized luxury. It was an honor for us to be asked to bring a select group of top-tier wedding professionals who were personally invited to explore the resort and witness firsthand what makes it such a coveted Caribbean destination.

From the moment we arrived, it was evident that Round Hill has carefully preserved its classic charm while still offering every modern comfort. What we loved the most is that the resort’s lush tropical grounds, and ocean views, provide a dreamy backdrop for nuptials of all sizes—be it a private, waterfront ceremony for two or a large celebration that transforms the entire property (especially that big green lawn where we saw all our tented weddings dreams come true).

During our site visit, we toured the elegant event spaces, discovered picturesque ceremony spots, and experienced the impeccable service that sets Round Hill apart. The gastronomical experience was unmatched, having been treated to even a Michelin chef’s dinner!

Of course, the “magic” of Round Hill goes beyond the scenery. While I loved every corner of the property, my favorite part was the staff. They were warm, caring, attentive and at all times delivered a hospitality experience that makes guests feel truly welcome.

Together with our colleagues Chris Evans of Chris J Evans Photography, Neillie Butler of Mariee Amie, Eva Clark of Eva Clark Events and Filmmaker Erikson Corbin, we all left Round Hill feeling deeply inspired by its one-of-a-kind blend of elegance and authenticity. For anyone dreaming of saying “I do” in paradise, Round Hill offers an unforgettable setting with every amenity you could imagine—making it the ideal location for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. It was a privilege for us to explore this Montego Bay gem, and we can’t wait to help bring our clients’ wedding dreams to life in this tropical haven.

We give special thanks to Sales and Marketing Director, Josie Karabolad, for the invitation, and to Leonja Adamson and Melissa Lynch of the wedding and events department for having treated us like royalty!
