Holding each other’s hands, walking into a pristine white church under the radiant blue sky and on the clean, soft sandy beach bathed in warm sunlight, showered with flower petals from loved ones as you make lifelong vows abroad—this unique romance can be made even sweeter through a local side trip, making overseas weddings increasingly popular in recent years. Among many overseas wedding destinations, Hawaii, Guam, and others are especially favored. Today we focus on them, and when planning an overseas beach wedding, what other unforgettable romantic spots are there? Let's take a look at this paradise together.

Before all the fun, of course, there are plenty of small but essential tasks to handle for such a life-changing event. Just coordinating schedules with photographers and stylists, arranging flights, hotels, and itineraries through a travel agency, and figuring out how to transport several large boxes of wedding attire to Guam can already dampen the excitement of hosting an overseas wedding. To address this, Taiwanese travel company "Southeast Travel Agency" has partnered with Japanese wedding planning firm "Goodluck Corporation" to soon open the first professional "Overseas Wedding Travel Flagship Store" in the Taipei metropolitan area, offering comprehensive overseas wedding travel packages. The “Mirror Service” means that any accessories tried on and selected in Taiwan will have identical versions available at all overseas branches, so brides can wear their chosen wedding dress right away upon arrival. In addition to taking wedding photos, couples can also enjoy a sweet travel experience just for two. The thoughtful, all-inclusive package service takes care of everything in one go—flights, hotels, travel itineraries, hair and makeup, wedding photography, and more. Moreover, the first 10 couples who sign up and pay a deposit for a Guam overseas wedding package can choose their ceremony venue, with the [Basic Package] wedding program offered at a flat rate: only NT$62,000 for Guam and NT$79,000 for Okinawa, with up to 58% off on wedding packages, helping make every girl’s dream of an overseas wedding come true.

After tying the knot in Guam, where should you go to unwind? Why not head to Tumon Bay to splash in the waves and see how the locals enjoy a laid-back lifestyle, ring the Eternal Love Bell at Lover’s Point for everlasting romance, or visit the Fish Eye Marine Park to snorkel near the Lover’s Bridge and admire Guam’s magical underwater world? Then treat yourselves to a sunset cruise dinner, letting the golden afterglow soothe both body and soul.
Tumon Bay
Located in the northwest of Guam, Tumon Bay is a 4-kilometer-long crescent-shaped bay. Surrounded by natural coral reefs that shelter it from strong winds, the bay remains calm, making it a perfect spot for tourists to enjoy the water. Along the shores of Tumon Bay are three famous public beaches—Ypao Beach, Matapang Beach, and Fafai Beach—all free of charge. A visit here will help you understand how the laid-back people of Guam spend their days and find leisure, making it easy to appreciate the local lifestyle.

Lover’s Point
Lover’s Point is a very famous attraction in Guam. After being privately purchased and redesigned, it now features a stunning observation deck with beautiful views of the Philippine Sea and Tumon Bay. The origin of Lover’s Point tells the story of a beautiful Chamorro maiden who fell in love with a young man from her tribe, but was promised by her father to a Spanish officer of high status. The maiden and her lover arranged to meet at a cliff in Tumon Bay, tied their hair together as a symbol of eternal togetherness, and then leapt off the cliff to their deaths. Next to the Lover’s Point plaza is a Lover’s Bell, a gift from Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, which also has a similar legend—legend says that couples who ring the bell together will stay in love forever.
