A Kamalame Cay Wedding...

Private Island Weddings are a growing trend, and Kamalame fits the bill... a beautiful secluded cay with all the comforts expected at a 5 star resort and a staff who goes above and beyond to help customize your special event!

A St. Lucia Wedding with Style

Shauna & Craig brought 14 of their closest friends and family down to the lush tropical island of St. Lucia to celebrate their Destination Wedding at the oldest and largest cathedral in the entire Caribbean.


The next day, the couple and their photographer, Christina Craft from Funky Town Photography, went all over the island in a private taxi and took pictures at some fun lookout spots and colorful local points of interest... and with a few colorful locals too!

A Mexican Wedding...

This amazing event is from Project Wedding... you'll have to go there to see the full post... but I wanted to share a few shots with you. I fell for these photos for two reasons: I love the Tides Zihautanejo - (read about my November trip here) - and because this bride didn't let the fact that she was having a Destination Wedding stop her from customizing her event with many great nautical/daisy themed ideas:

Ecofetti is the new safe and accepted wedding toss with no cleanup worries. Water-soluble and completely biodegradable confetti - either hose it away or let nature help with the cleanup...The perfect economical and environmentally friendly alternative to rice or birdseed, no slipping or staining, and ecofetti flutters easily to the ground... this is PERFECT for a beach destination wedding.

A Compass Point Destination Wedding

Compass Point is one of the few boutique hotels in Nassau. It has a funky-cool-chic vibe so how very appropriate that this Destination Wedding was shot by Funky Town Photography.


Their work showcases the many different options you have for your wedding album...

Rachel & Aaron flew in more than 30 of their favorite people to celebrate their wedding at the gorgeous Compass Beach Resort near Nassau. With some of the clearest water in the Caribbean, white sandy beaches and dramatic skies, it was a photographer's dream!

This couple actually took photos twice... the day of the ceremony & reception and then the next day, to take advantage of the tranquil post-dawn light... a fantastic growing trend!






This has been another Funky Town Production!

Bahamas' Out Islands... the stuff dreams are made of

The Bahamas Tourist Board has a great website. It should be considered a reference for anyone thinking of the Bahamas for their Destination Wedding. I found these inspirational photos on their website... featuring weddings in the Out Islands...

What are the Out Islands, you might ask? The other 699 Bahamian Islands aside from the one you likely know about - New Providence, home to Nassau.


Be it a sandy beach or a quaint little church... the Out Islands of the Bahamas offers all the ingredients to make your special day memorable...
