FAQs (Built for Google PAA + Fast Decisions)
Is a Bahamas wedding legally recognized in the U.S., Canada, and internationally?
Yes—when the marriage license is obtained properly, the ceremony is performed by a licensed Bahamas Marriage Officer, and the marriage is registered so you can request your official certificate.
How soon can we get married after arriving in The Bahamas?
It depends on your exact arrival time and ceremony date. Message me your arrival date and ceremony date and I’ll tell you the cleanest plan for your timeline.
What documents do we need for a Bahamas marriage license?
Commonly: valid passports, proof of status (single/divorced/widowed), and any required supporting documents if names changed or prior marriages exist. The fastest path is to WhatsApp me your details so I can confirm the exact list for your situation.
Do we need witnesses for a Bahamas wedding ceremony?
Witness requirements can depend on the type of ceremony and how it’s arranged. If you’re eloping, message me—I'll confirm what you need and the simplest way to handle it.
Can you help if we’re doing a resort wedding (Atlantis / Baha Mar / Paradise Island)?
Yes. I regularly handle Nassau and Paradise Island legal ceremonies and can align the legal steps with your resort timeline.
What if one of us was previously married?
That’s common. It just changes the document checklist. Message me the details and I’ll confirm what you need so you don’t waste time once you land.
Can we do a private beach or villa ceremony?
Yes—private beaches and villas can be excellent options. The key is aligning location logistics with legal timing. Send me your dates + location and I’ll advise quickly.
Do you also help with the marriage certificate and apostille after?
Yes. If you’ll need certified copies or an apostille for official use, I can guide you on the correct next steps after registration.
