FAQs
Do I need a wedding planner for a Bahamas wedding?
Yes. A Bahamas wedding planner manages local vendors, permits, and logistics that are difficult to handle abroad. As a licensed Marriage Officer, I can also officiate your ceremony—so you don’t need a separate officiant.
How much does a Bahamas wedding planner cost?
It depends on guest count and style. Simple beach elopements are lower cost, while private-villa or multi-day celebrations require more coordination. I provide clear, line-item quotes after our consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
How do you legally get married in the Bahamas?
You must be in The Bahamas for 24 hours before applying. Bring valid passports, birth certificates, and divorce/death certificates if applicable. I guide the license process, file paperwork, and arrange an apostille if needed.
Can US citizens get married in the Bahamas?
Yes. Bahamas marriages are legally recognized in the United States and most other countries. With an apostille, your marriage certificate is valid worldwide. I arrange the license and apostille so there are no legal concerns back home.
What months are best for a Bahamas wedding?
January through April is the driest period with cooler breezes—ideal for outdoor ceremonies. Sandbar weddings require tide-specific timing, which I plan for. Summer months are warmer with a chance of afternoon showers.
