Hello All - My fiance and I are planning a Saint Thomas destination wedding on July 3rd. Our first night of our honeymoon will be the 4th of July - also in STT. Any suggestions or tips on where we can enjoy the the holiday festivities? Thanks!

The St John Festival winds up on the 4th with fireworks over Cruz Bay. Very nice start to your marriage.

St. John has numerous activities during the week before the 4th.

if you'll be staying on the east end, you can also ask (just in case you don't intend to make it over to st. john) if the fireworks may be seen from the property.

St John will have their festival/carnival parade during the day, and the fireworks usually start around 9 that night. You should be able to see them from the East End of St Thomas from Point Pleasant, Sapphire, Red Hook, etc.

There will probably be some activities at some of the restaurants, bars, beaches on St Thomas, but they probably won't be posted until late June. Whatever they are, they won't compare to St John's activities!

You might want to check but I believe the STJ parade will be held on the 5th this year as the 4th falls on a Sunday.
