Getting married on the beach
Hi everyone, I am engadge to get married to my bajan boyfriend and we would love to have a simple beach wedding .
Does anyone know how to go about this? Would I have to go through a hotel or guest house? Anyone have any ideas how we could have a beach wedding at low costs, not sure if there are any laws about getting married on the beach?
Please help if anyone has been through this at all or knows anyone that has.
Thanks.

Re: Getting married on the beach
I know you mentioned keeping the costs low, but to be honest I think the only simple way to do this is with the help of a wedding planner. There's some listed here or maybe some people on here have better recommendations, or have been through the process themselves....

Re: Getting married on the beach
You may have seen the video on the following website already, because it has been out for a while, but if not, you may find it useful. It is all about getting married in Barbados. It is an interesting video, even for people who are not getting married.
The website is http://www.weddingtv.com/tv-shows/ho...s-on-barbados/.
If the link I have provided doesn't work, just type weddingtv.com into the search engine. When on the wedding tv website, click on "tv shows" at the top of the screen, then click on "Focus on Barbados" under the watch our shows heading on the right hand side of the screen. The video should start playing.
PS
On YouTube, there are many videos of people getting married on beaches and elsewhere on the island. Just go to YouTube and type in "Barbados Beach Wedding," "Barbados Wedding," or similar verbiage. You may get some ideas from some of the videos.

Coconut Court Beach Hotel also had a great beach to do weddings on. Not sure what your budget is, but check the website as there is a rate on it. You might be able to scale that down if you don't need all the bells but ask first.
