Stress-Free Bahamas Elopement Review: “It Felt Like We’d Known Glenn Forever”
As a licensed Bahamas marriage officer and wedding planner, I handle your e-visa guidance, marriage license, resort coordination, ceremony and apostille — so you can simply show up, say “I do,” and enjoy paradise.
A Real Bahamas Elopement Story (And Why Couples Trust Me With Their Wedding Day)
Planning a destination wedding in The Bahamas should feel magical — not stressful, confusing, or overwhelming. If you are just starting your research, you can also read my guide on planning a destination wedding in The Bahamas to see how everything fits together.
When this couple contacted me about their Bahamas elopement, they wanted something intimate, personal, and legally perfect — the kind of experience I design every week through my Bahamas elopement packages.
“We hired Glenn Ferguson as our wedding coordinator and officiant, and he made everything unbelievably easy. He helped us with e-visa processing, coordinated with the resort, secured our marriage license, and even arranged the apostilles for our marriage certificate. He really took care of every single detail and was personally involved from start to finish AND beyond.”
Your Bahamas Wedding Isn’t Just a Ceremony — It’s Legal, Government & Logistics
A Bahamas wedding is not simply symbolic. It involves immigration, filing deadlines, government offices, and legal registration. That is why I created a complete marriage license in the Bahamas guide and why I personally walk couples through every step.
Here is what I manage for you, so you are never left guessing:
- ✔️ E-visa guidance for entering The Bahamas
- ✔️ Marriage license processing and courthouse filings
- ✔️ Official Bahamas marriage officer to legally marry you
- ✔️ Resort and on-site coordinator communication
- ✔️ Marriage certificate registration and follow-up
- ✔️ Apostille services so your marriage is recognized back home
You do not receive a checklist and hope for the best — you receive clear, step-by-step guidance from someone who has been doing this for more than two decades.
If the legal details worry you, my Bahamas marriage license guide and marriage certificate resources break everything down into simple steps — and I handle the parts you should not have to chase.
“It Honestly Felt Like We’d Known Him for a Long Time”
“What stood out the most was his warm personality. He made us feel so comfortable that it honestly felt like we’d known him for a looong time.”
I do not outsource trust. You work directly with me — no handoffs, no strangers, no confusion. Many couples find me after reading other Bahamas elopement reviews and testimonials and realize they are not alone in wanting someone calm, experienced, and fully in control.

Bahamas Elopement FAQs
Is a Bahamas elopement legal in my home country?
Yes. As a licensed Bahamas marriage officer, I make sure your ceremony is fully legal here in The Bahamas, and then I arrange your certified marriage certificate and apostille so it is recognized in your home country. This is especially important if you live in the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, or Latin America.
How far in advance should we book our Bahamas elopement?
Most couples book their Bahamas elopement 3–9 months in advance, but I regularly help couples on shorter timelines. The key is making sure we have enough time to secure your marriage license appointment and organize your documents. If you are unsure, contact me and I will tell you exactly what is realistic for your date.
What is included in your stress-free Bahamas elopement packages?
My stress-free elopement packages typically include ceremony planning, a licensed marriage officer, marriage license coordination, filing of paperwork, resort or beach coordination, and guidance on certificates and apostilles. You can add photography, florals, hair and makeup, and more depending on how simple or styled you want your day to be.
Can you help if we are arriving by cruise ship?
Yes. I have dedicated options for Bahamas cruise weddings and elopements, including same-day legal ceremonies in Nassau. I carefully align your marriage license appointment, ceremony time, and ship schedule so you are never rushed and always back onboard on time.
Where are the best places to elope in The Bahamas?
For elopements, many couples choose Nassau & Paradise Island, Exuma, Eleuthera, and Harbour Island. Each offers different beaches, private venues, and villas. I help you match the island and location to your budget, travel plans, and photography style, and you can explore ideas in my articles on the best places to elope in the Bahamas and the best beaches for a wedding in The Bahamas.
