Have Your Christian Wedding Ceremony in The Bahamas

 
 

Would you like to get married in the sunny, romantic, Bahamas?  The Bahamas is the leading Caribbean tourist destination and one of the top tourist spots of the world (more than five million tourist each year). 

If you are interested in having a Christian wedding ceremony in the Bahamas you can contact Barrington H. Brennen, an ordained minister of the gospel and a  official marriage officer of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas:  marriage@soencouragement.org  or 1-242-327 1980 or write P.O. Box CB-13019, Nassau, The Bahamas.  Barrington Brennen will conduct your ceremony upon the couple's agreeing to the following:

  • The couple receives pre-marriage counseling in their home town.  At the end of the counseling sessions a letter or email is sent to Barrington Brennen from the pastor/counselor confirming the completion of the counseling sessions.
  • The couple arrives in the Bahamas at least five days before the wedding date to facilitate an interview with Barrington Brennen and to place an application to get the marriage licensee  The Bahamas Law states that the couple must be resident in The Bahamas for 24 hours prior to the date of the application. A Bahamian-issued marriage license is valid for 90 days for those seeking early application.
  • The marriage license fee is $100 US (To be given to the Marriage Registry)
  • An additional fee will be charge for the ceremony
The ceremony can be conducted in a hotel, on the beach, or in a church.  Most hotels in the Bahamas have Wedding Coordinators who will assist the couple in planning for a beautiful wedding day. 

Couples can also take the Prepare/Enrich Inventory to discover your strength and growth areas in the relations.  Email barringtonbrennen@gmail.com to get more information.
