Wyndham Viva Fortuna, Grand Bahama Island

[WeddingsBahamas]

This time of year 4:30 pm is really pushing it. But if you time it right and keep the service short you should be able to get great sunset photos at about 5:00 pm.

Thanks, WeddingBahamas for the info. I had seen the sunset was scheduled for 5:20 or so next week. The Viva Fortuna has short services and I will not have n wedding party, so no time will be spent with hem walking in or special readings and such. Unfortunately the sunset is not visible from the beach, but hopefully we can still enjoy the warm colors it provides. What time does it actually get dark?

You don't want to go beyond 5:00 pm because 5:20 pm will be really dark...

Yes, I just received a message from the wedding coordinator and we will be moving the wedding up to 4:00pm. 

 

I also asked her about having an ipod plug on the CD player and they don't have one. I have decided to just go with their music. With 2 days to go before we leave I have too much other stuff to do

 

See you in the Bahamas Marisa. I look forward to meeting you

Hi girls.  I just wanted to chime in b/c I'm getting married in the Bahamas too, but on Exuma.  I think I'm the only bride getting married there but I'm totally ok with that.  lol.  The lack of tourists is part of the reason we love the island so much.  Who are you girls using for a photographer?  I have a feeling I'm going to be bringing someone over from Nassau so I'm open to any suggestions!

Weddings Bahamas, thanks for the video. I am actually thinking I will move the wedding up to 3:30pm 

 

Thanks for the warm wishes

Hi Kelli, Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. I am just using the photographer that is included in my package, it includes 10 photos. My daughter is a very good photographer so she will be taking a lot of the photos, and between all the guests there will be lots of pictures. 

 

I have a friend that goes to Exuma all the time, he posts facebook pics and it looks like a beautiful spot!!
