Hazel

Hi, I just joined BDW a few days ago. My fiancee and I got engaged about a month ago and we have decided that we want a destination wedding. We wanted to get married on the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island in Nassau, but they are too expensive and have a lot of rules and uncertainties. We are now looking at the USVI, probbaly St. Thomas. I do not know much about the islands so I am at the start of my planning. We are looking at a wedding in Maybe October of 2009 and I want a beatuful private garden that overlooks the water as my first choice. A cute chapel would be my second choice. I also want to have accomodations on a resort that has a few activities to keep the guests busy during our Wedding Weekend. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Everyone, I am Hazel and am newly engaged. We are thinking of a wedding in the Bahamas on Paradise Island. I would love to get married at the French Clositers at the One & Only Resort in Nassau, but it's kind of pricey. Atlantis is another option, but also kind of pricey. I would also love a wedding in Mexico, but am not as familiar with the area, yet. That's all I have so far. Not much, I know. We don't yet have a date, but are looking at October of 2009. I am already overwhelmed with all that goes into wedding planning, but I am very excited about the wedding.
