"Double Your Paradise" in Aruba and Curacao With a Free Renaissance Honeymoon

Book a Wedding at the Renaissance Resorts in Aruba or Curaçao and Receive a Free Five Night Honeymoon at Either Resort

NEW YORK (September 17, 2009) - The Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino and the brand new Renaissance Curaçao Resort & Casino have unveiled the "Double Your Paradise" wedding package, which features a free five-night honeymoon at one of the resorts when you book your wedding at the other.  In addition, the package can be used in conjunction with any existing package or promotion that is offered at the time of the booking, which can amount to significant savings.

At the Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino, the bride and groom can treat their guests to an amazing private island wedding ceremony and reception on the resort's 40-acre Renaissance Island.  Then, after celebrating with friends and family, the honeymooners can hop over to Curaçao for a honeymoon at the brand new Renaissance Curaçao Resort & Casino. 
For those who wish to start the festivities in beautiful Curaçao, the Renaissance Curaçao Resort & Casino, the first new full-service, branded hotel to open in the Dutch Caribbean in 15 years, serves as the perfect location for a romantic wedding ceremony and reception.  The resort's Infinity Beach Club, located on a 19th century fort, boasts a private elevated beach with sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea.

"Our resorts in Aruba and Curaçao offer two distinct experiences, much like the two islands," said Janien Huistra, Director of Sales and Marketing for the Renaissance Aruba and Renaissance Curaçao Resort & Casino.   "We wanted to find a way to allow guests to celebrate their union at one resort and then enjoy a romantic honeymoon - and a completely different experience - at the other. However, guests have the option to have both at the same property; couples are free to choose the combination they want."

Guests must book 75 consecutive revenue-generating nights by December 31, 2009 and travel for the ceremony by December 31, 2010. Blackout dates apply to the free honeymoon, which may be taken any time during the travel window - up to one year after the wedding.
