DRMumbai: Wracking your brain scouting for the perfect locale for your fairytale destination wedding? You just hit the bull’s eye! Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts has launched its much-awaited service ‘Cinnamon Island Weddings’, a bespoke specially curated luxury wedding experiences for destination weddings in Sri Lanka. The announcement was made at the World Travel Market 2017, a leading global event for the travel industry that was organised earlier in London.

To take part in the contest, applicants should send across an image, written piece or a one-minute video clip that creatively describes why they should be the winners of the Cinnamon Island Weddings competition.
The lucky couple will receive two business class air tickets and 48 economy class tickets for their friends and family, end-to-end local transportation covered in Sri Lanka, full board accommodation at four and five star Cinnamon resorts in Sri Lanka, a wedding reception with complete décor, entertainment, bridal attire, a five-karat sapphire ring and an exotic location to host the wedding. Photography for the entire wedding will be done by award-winning wedding photographer David Stanbury. The couple will also have an opportunity to explore Sri Lanka’s diversity with a seven- nights honeymoon package, courtesy Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts.

The wedding tourism industry is a potential market that is on a rapid upward trajectory as travel trends show that more and more travellers are leaning towards romantic destination weddings.”
This initiative, he said, will help to showcase Sri Lanka as a vibrant, beautiful and captivating destination for weddings and will highlight how well the island and its hotels are geared to host tailor-made weddings, receptions and honeymoons.
