“We are delighted to introduce St. Vincent and the Grenadines to Four Weddings’ target audience. They will see that we have the most complete Caribbean destination for a romantic and memorable honeymoon,” said Glen Beache, Minister of Tourism.

“The destination weddings and honeymoons market is one of the four pillars of our marketing and public relations programme,” said Beache.

“Four Weddings” follows four brides with their own unique styles and traditions as they agree to attend and judge each other’s weddings. The basis of their judging includes food, dress, venue, overall experience and originality. The winning bride is awarded a luxurious honeymoon at the end of the show. Season 1 averaged 1.1 million viewers; the show is currently in its second season.

TLC’s innovative docu-series and reality-based programming include favourites Jon & Kate Plus 8, Little People, Big World, What Not to Wear, 19 Kids and Counting, Say Yes to the Dress, and LA Ink. TLC added to its menu of programming with Cake Boss and Ultimate Cake Off, and continues to expand into the food genre.
