What a beautiful wedding this was, with everything included!
Some special highlights:
- Since there were nearly 60 guests, the entire Ocean Oasis Beach Club was rented out.
- We ensured that all guests were picked up and safely transported home in fun, colorful tourist buses.
- Instead of a traditional paper guestbook, an audio guestbook was arranged, where guests could leave a message using an old-fashioned telephone.
- Just after sunset, guests formed a gate by standing on either side. They were each given an XXL sparkler and a lighter. After counting down, everyone lit their sparklers, and the couple walked through this gate of sparklers and their loved ones. It was a magical and atmospheric moment!
- What could be more fun than having a barbecue dinner at your wedding on tropical Bonaire, where guests can enjoy a good piece of meat straight from the barbecue on the beach?
- While all the guests were dining, a Same Day Edit video was being created behind the scenes. This is a wedding video made on the same day, showcasing all the highlights of the wedding. As guests gathered at the party location, the Same Day Edit video was played, much to the surprise and delight of everyone!
- Then, guests heard drums and trumpets from afar—another big surprise! Around the corner came a full brass band to kick off the wedding celebration. Everyone was instantly in a festive mood!
- The last song of the brass band was taken over by the DJ. At this point, the couple’s first dance began. It was completely unexpected for all the guests, who certainly didn’t anticipate a dance from them, let alone in such a cool way!
- During the party, both cocktails and shots were served.
- Guests had prepared a fun Bonaire song and dance, and there was even a piñata made for the couple to break.
- Everyone was safely picked up again by a tourist party bus. With music and colorful lights, the bus full of cheerful wedding guests returned safely to their accommodations!
- There were also many other activities organized that week for the wedding guests to sign up for, such as diving, a sunset boat tour, a CrossFit swim workout, a lazy afternoon at a resort the day after the wedding, a tour of the National Park, cactus liqueur tasting, etc.
It was not only an amazing day but also a fantastic week that everyone looks back on with great joy!
