"Perfectly Imperfect"
Jasmin & Marcello's Bahamas Beach Elopement
Planned and officiated by WPIC-Certified Glenn Ferguson — From USA to Nassau for an intimate, stress-free beach ceremony
Jasmin and Marcello Grimaldi came from the United States 🇺🇸 to the Bahamas 🇧🇸 because they wanted something simple, intimate, and real — a ceremony on the beach, warm weather, and a planner who would handle everything.
They chose Glenn S. Ferguson because he's both a Licensed Bahamas Marriage Officer and a WPIC-Certified Wedding Planner. That meant one person could coordinate their day and legally marry them — no stress, no confusion.
"Glenn was fantastic, so professional and accommodating. Our special day was beautiful and intimate just like we wanted."
— Jasmin & Marcello Grimaldi

Common Questions
Bahamas Elopement FAQs
Is my Bahamas marriage legal in the U.S. or Canada?
Yes. Once it's registered and you have the certified copy, it's legally recognized. For extra convenience, Glenn can guide you to get an Apostille for international legal authentication.
How long do we need to be in the Bahamas?
At least 24 hours before applying for your marriage license. Glenn's team preps everything in advance so you can process it quickly when you arrive in Nassau.
Can we choose any beach or island?
Yes. Nassau, Paradise Island, private villas, and even other islands like Exuma are options. Glenn coordinates elopements across all Bahamas locations. See current elopement packages.
What does a Bahamas elopement cost?
Most couples spend around $1,495 for a basic elopement with licensed officiant, marriage license assistance, beach coordination, and certified certificate. Upgrades for photography, private villas, and additional islands available.
Why use Glenn over a resort wedding coordinator?
Because Glenn is independent, Licensed Marriage Officer, WPIC-certified, and can officiate ANYWHERE — not only at one hotel. That's why U.S. couples like Jasmin & Marcello use him. Plus, he handles the entire legal process personally.
What's included in Glenn's elopement service?
