The Cayman Islands target industry professionals during Europe

Engage-2014The engage!14 wedding summit took over Grand Cayman 17 — 20 November with three days of inspiration, insights and innovation for the industry’s best planners, designers, photographers and more. The buzz created by these wedding professionals inspired the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism to shine a light on the Sister Islands’ unparalleled romance offerings, as they are the perfect destinations for exceptional weddings and honeymoons. This week, the Department of Tourism hosted 20 top tier wedding industry influencers from engage!14 to explore Cayman Brac and Little Cayman and get a firsthand look at just how convenient planning a wedding or honeymoon in either destination would be.

A quick flight from Grand Cayman via Cayman Airways, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman are ideal settings for exotic weddings and romantic getaways. In one exciting, jam-packed day, the attending influencers were introduced to the islands’ stunning accommodations, delicious dining options and unforgettable opportunities for outdoor excursions. They sampled locally grown produce, visited Cayman Brac’s pristine beaches, saw the vistas at Light House Point, before exploring the dramatic Bat Cave and stopping for lunch at the island’s brand new hotel, Le Soleil d’Or. The group then moved to Little Cayman, where they learned about the island’s history at the Little Cayman Museum and finished their whirlwind day with a sunset at the Southern Cross Club.

“We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to bring key influencers from the engage!14 summit to our beautiful Sister Islands, giving them a chance to experience the diverse offerings throughout our three islands,” said Deputy Premier and Minister of Tourism, the Hon. Moses Kirkconnell. “We are so happy that this wonderful event has once again graced our shores, bringing with it so many important people who can experience the spirit of Caymankindness firsthand.”

Outside of engage!14’s many sessions and lectures, attendees and speakers were also encouraged to explore Grand Cayman by taking part in excursions that would bring them beyond the conference — be it a meal at one of the island’s 200 premier restaurants or a trip to kiss the stingrays for good luck at Stingray City. As refreshing breaks between engage!14 activities, these activities gave engage!14 participants the chance to experience everything that makes Grand Cayman an incredible island destination.
