Entertaining Guests at Your Bahamas Wedding- As if the breathtaking landscape and charming people weren’t enough to make your guests fall in love with not only your wedding but the Bahamas itself, I’ve seen so many stunning and innovative displays of entertaining your guests at your Bahamian Wedding that took ceremonies right over the edge from beautiful to unforgettable. Here are the Top 10 Ways to Entertain your Guests at Your Bahamas Wedding that I’ve had the pleasure to capture over the years that are guaranteed to entertain and engage your guests.

A live band is not only a lively and interactive way to keep your guests tuned in, but the dance floor will not get a break! Also, the right band with the right tunes will make for a night full of singalongs in-between the program. Even more than that, hiring a band for your big day will definitely take the stress off of seeking a good DJ! Top 10 Ways to Entertain your Guests at Your Bahamas Wedding

Nothing screams “Bahamian” or is more memorable than a traditional Junkanoo Rush out. This homage to the cultural festival is filled with bright colors, vivacious music, and extremely infectious energy. It’s an easy way to get your friends and family off their feet and bouncing in rhythm with the synchronized dancers literally shaking their tail feathers. Complete with trumpets, goatskin drums, and cowbells, the entire island will know about your big day.

Need we say more? Just look at the faces of the crowd! I loved the theatrics at Marissa and Anthony’s Atlantis wedding. This firey (no pun intended), dramatic spectacle is sure to turn up the heat at any ceremony. There are certainly not many more unique ways to keep your guests talking about your wedding for years to come.

 

Venue: The Cove, Atlantis

 

 

Fireworks

Visual. Breathtaking. Phenomenal. Who gets tired of seeing fireworks? From the very old to the very young, this charming display can be enjoyed by everyone. Not only does it stand out in the moment, but makes for amazing photos (like this one). You can even go the extra mile and have your choice of ballad playing in the background while these bright lights paint the sky. It’s your day. Make the magic yours. Casey and Kirsten certainly did.

 

Venue: Kamalame Cay

 

Flamingoes!

Mary-Kate and Sean absolutely blew us away with these lovely flamingo birds rented from Baha Mar at their destination wedding in October 2019. The entire crowd was won over by these pink treasures.

 

Photobooths

 

This is the perfect way to ensure your entire guest list is included in fun photos and really great bonding activity for both sides of the family to engage. I have no doubt Erin, Andre, and their entire party still crack up at some of these photos from 2017. Clickbooth Bahamas offers customized backdrops and decals for your photo booth. Check them out here!

 

These are just a few ways of entertaining Guests at Your Bahamian Wedding, adding flare while keeping making your already special moment spectacular. There’s absolutely no limit to how creative you can be for your celebration of love. Head over to Chic Bahamas Weddings for more fun tips!
