Intimate Island Weddings: Why May is the Perfect Month to Say “I Do”

Lush, local, and deeply personalbreathe life into your story within the heart of the tropics at The Hideaway.

For couples dreaming of a wedding that feels like it was made just for them, May in St. Thomas delivers more than beautiful weather—it brings peace, privacy, and possibility.

At The Hideaway at Hull Bay, weddings aren't cookie-cutter events. They’re soulful, secluded celebrations designed to reflect your story. And in late spring, when the island is blooming and the beaches are quieter, there’s no better time or place to begin a new chapter.

Why May is Made for Moments Like This

May strikes the perfect balance in the USVI:

  • Soft trade winds and warm days without the summer crowds

  • Lush landscapes in full bloom—ideal for florals, photos, and barefoot vows

  • More privacy and flexibility across the island’s best locations

At The Hideaway, this seasonal sweet spot is even more special. Hull Bay’s quiet shoreline offers a rare sense of seclusion, while the property itself is surrounded by tropical greenery, open-air spaces, and curated comforts.

Privacy, Flexibility, and Your Vision—Fully Supported

Unlike traditional resorts, The Hideaway is a fully private estate, meaning your wedding doesn’t have to share space—or style—with anyone else. Whether you're planning an elopement for two or an intimate celebration for 36, the experience is tailored entirely to you.

What makes weddings here feel different:

  • Choose your ceremony backdrop—from the beachfront to the farm garden or poolside terrace

  • Craft your timeline around moments that matter to you, not a preset schedule

  • Stay onsite with your guests in group-friendly villas and cottages—no transportation stress or venue hopping

Experiences That Feel Personal, Not Performed

At The Hideaway, everything is built around ease and intention. You're not just booking a venue—you're creating an experience that feels natural, warm, and unhurried.

Couples often enjoy:

  • Optional farm-to-table dinners with ingredients grown right on the property

  • Golden hour photoshoots on the beach or under the palms

  • Tiki-lit receptions or champagne brunches on private lawns

  • Add-ons like snorkeling charters or wellness activities to round out the stay

Whether you want a full weekend celebration or a single day of barefoot elegance, the estate adapts to your vision.

Designed for Elopements, Micro-Weddings & Intimate Celebrations

For couples seeking simplicity with meaning, The Hideaway is especially magical for:

  • Elopements—Private beach vows followed by a sunset picnic or chef-prepared dinner

  • Micro-weddings—Up to 36 guests surrounded by natural beauty and personal touches

  • Multi-day retreats—Where the celebration is as much about connection as it is about the ceremony

The setting feels both elevated and grounding—luxury without pretense, celebration without pressure.

Why This Venue Changes the Game

The Hideaway’s private beach access adds something few venues can offer:

  • A blank canvas where nature becomes the décor

  • Built-in flexibility for sunrise ceremonies, starlit dancing, or casual toasts at golden hour

  • No logistics hassle—guests can move seamlessly from their villas to the ceremony, reception, and beach

There’s no need to over-plan or over-style when the location speaks for itself.

Make It Yours

Weddings at The Hideaway are designed to feel like you.

Whether that’s sharing stories over a welcome dinner in the courtyard, gathering for a farewell brunch under the palms, or quietly walking the beach after the guests have gone—your time here is about celebrating love on your terms.

Book your wedding at The Hideaway at Hull Bay and begin your forever with privacy, beauty, and ease.
