Newlywed Chefs Savor Pickleball Paradise on Tropical Honeymoon

In the days following their wedding at the Fieri family ranch in California, newlyweds Tara and Hunter Fieri have been enjoying a dreamy tropical mini-moon at Sandals Resort in St. Vincent. The couple, who wed on August 30th, spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about their luxurious and pickleball-filled getaway.

Tara, a professional pickleball player, and Hunter, a chef, described their mini-moon as a "true luxury experience and a pickleball paradise." They even had the opportunity to play the sport with the resort's general manager and team, an experience they found "truly unforgettable." Beyond the pickleball, the couple was also enamored with the stunning views, incredible butler service, and exceptional cuisine at the resort.

"One of our favorite parts was the food," the newlyweds shared. "We tried almost every dish at Sora, the Italian restaurant -- definitely a favorite! -- and the chef even made us gluten-free pancakes every morning for breakfast." The couple also took time to explore the island, visiting a stunning waterfall and learning about St. Vincent's rich culture and history, which has them already considering a return visit to host a "pickleball x food event" in the future.

"This trip was pure paradise from start to finish," Tara and Hunter concluded, reflecting on their blissful mini-moon in the tropical paradise.
