Looking for a Caribbean wedding venue that’s adults-only and has European elegance? Sandals Royal Bahamian might be your perfect match with its blend of luxury and tropical charm.

Venue Overview and Setting

This paradise resort sits along Nassau’s stunning Cable Beach, where crystal-clear waters and pristine white-sand beaches create your ceremony’s backdrop. The venue can host up to 5 weddings each day with several breathtaking locations to choose from. Your options include an oceanfront gazebo that fits up to 120 guests, a beachfront venue for up to 200 guests, or a cozy over-water gazebo that’s perfect for intimate ceremonies of 10 or fewer guests. On top of that, it has private pools, customized decor elements, and gourmet dining options that boost the wedding experience.

Wedding Package Options ($1,500-$8,000)

The resort has wedding packages that fit different budgets. Couples who book a minimum three-night stay can get their “Beautiful Beginnings” package at no cost. Those who want to expand on their celebrations have these options:

• Free Tropical Wedding: This package has a picturesque ceremony location, bride’s bouquet with fuchsia Dendrobium orchids, two-tiered white fondant cake, and cocktail reception
• Kiss Me at Twilight: A $600 package that adds a twilight ceremony time and unity sand ceremony

Wedding costs at this venue typically range from $1,000 to $15,000 based on your package, venue, catering needs, and photography services.

Accommodation Choices for Wedding Guests

The resort’s size (under 600 rooms) makes it ideal for wedding parties. Guests can stay close together or spread out as needed. Rooms cost $400-$500 per night on average, ranging from walkout suites to oceanfront penthouses. Joy’s stays platform (stays.withjoy.com) makes it easy to arrange accommodations for your wedding party.

Best Season for Your Bahamian Wedding

The shoulder seasons – November to mid-December or late April to June – offer the best mix of weather and value. These times have pleasant temperatures and fewer tourists. The peak season from mid-December through April brings the best weather with temperatures between 77°F and 86°F, though rates are higher. December through May is the dry season, which brings reliable weather patterns and minimal hurricane risks.
