So much can be said about this amazing 3 day Lyford Cay Wedding weekend in The Bahamas, yet I shall rely on the old adage that a picture paints a thousand words. In a nutshell, imagine delish Rum Dum cocktails at the welcome reception held at the Little Club, followed by a scrumptuous buffet complete with beautiful carvings. Top that off with the world-renowned (yes he is!!) Action Jackson Limbo King (he really does limbo under 6 inches of flaming poles, and he really can carry 2 women while he limbos as the pics below can attest to). What does one plan for the wedding day when you’ve given your guests all of that?
Welllll…..a calming yoga session during bridal prep for the ladies and a few beers for the guys; a stunning, picture-perfect setting on the lawn for the ceremony where the groom’s sister is his Best Man (love it!!!) and the bride does not stop smiling during the enter ceremony; cocktails and portraits; first dances and toasts; a conservation-themed wedding cake as a nod to the amazing work that the bride and groom do in Africa; the essential, ultra-Bahamian tradition of a Junkanoo rush-out to lead your guests from one venue to the other all while shaking cowbells, blowing horns and beating on goatskin drums.
I think that just about summed it up. Lots of laughters, very few tears…. this is a couple who shall have a fun-laughter-love-filled life for many years to come.
As always so grateful to work with such a fantastic team (all Bahamas grown and proud!) who continue to put gorgeous weddings together and who capture the beautiful memories each and every time.
WEDDING DAY!!
