I think it depends on type of feel you want for this wedding/honeymoon.
If you want very lush and tropical, but slightly British, you'll choose St. Lucia.
If you want an inexpensive all-inclusive (and you're considering the pocketbook of your guests), then you'll choose Punta Cana.
If you want something a bit more authentic in (French) flavor, then you'll choose Martinique. Of course, you should know some French when you go.
Please make sure you're able to fulfill the marriage requirements for each island - some islands are easier to get married on than others.
Congrats and good luck!

St. Lucia is the position to bypass for a honeymoon. that is ranked because the #a million honeymoon destination interior the international through over 4000 holiday brokers and has been for the 4th time interior the purely appropriate 5 years. The island is opulent and eco-friendly with a lot to do. Sandals is a good resources. you isn't upset.
