Special Packages
Old Bahama Bay has created two unique wedding programs for discerning brides and grooms desiring to create their own special wedding celebration:
Island Weddings By Design is the antithesis of a traditional destination wedding package, featuring an innovative a la carte menu. The program affords couples the opportunity to pick and choose from a host of arrangements, services and items guaranteed to personalize their special day. As part of the service, couples are assigned an on-site wedding planner knowledgeable in every aspect of island wedding planning and will help create the wedding of their dreams. From intimate and simple barefoot elegance on the beach to the ultimate and exclusive use of the entire resort, couples can truly have their day their way.
For couples desiring the romance, spontaneity and the excitement of eloping, Old Bahama Bay has created a special Just the 2 of You package. What separates this package from traditional destination weddings is that a bride and groom can simply arrive at the resort with no pre-planning or wedding party and we can still give them the wedding of their dreams.

Completely
spell out city and state/province names. Use "Los Angeles" rather than "LA" and
"Hawaii" instead of "HI."
Specify at least one listing type: Accommodation,
Cruise, Wedding Professional, Tour Operator, Other Travel Professional
You
may select more than one listing types if you like. You can search for all the accommodations and wedding professionals
in Cancun if you like.
You
may search any word used in the business description. Businesses provide a description of their services which
is fully searchable.
No
luck with your search? Try
a broader search. Instead of looking for accommodations in Paris,
France with honeymoon packages and a pool, try just accommodations
and France.
