Today's couple hail from County Cork, Ireland they were visiting on a cruise which included Jamaica and Mexico. One of the reasons they chose Grand Cayman for their Destination Wedding was the ease of getting married here.
I took them down to Governor's Beach, one of the widest and prettiest parts of Seven Mile Beach. That time of morning it was virtually deserted. As usual I am impressed by the sanitarians from the Department of Environmental Health who keep Cayman's public beaches so spic and span. Such a small thing, perhaps, but our visitors never fail to be impressed, and to say so. This couple had a some special witnesses, a couple of Cayman parrots. It gave me the opportunity to tell them that the Cayman parrot is unique to these islands, and also our National Bird.
This is the part of the ceremony where I talk about the wedding rings.
the witnesses. Just remember to let us know so we can make arrangements, because we have to
get witnesses to come out specially.
Posing with Joy for the traditional "proof" shot, ie a copy of the Marriage Register
A Civil Registrar of Marriages in the Cayman Islands is required to give each couple a certified copy of their signed Marriage Register. I don't have to give them a nice, pretty one like this, but I prefer to. Once I register your marriage with the Registrar General I am also required to send you your Registered Marriage Certificate, this is your legal Marriage Certificate and it is recognised world-wide. The cost of the Registered Marriage Certificate is included in all the wedding packages at "Simply Weddings". Likewise, the cost of the Special Marriage License is included in all our packages.
Sealed with a kiss!

After this I took them back to George Town so they could enjoy a nice wedding brunch and explore the town, before rejoining their ship. I recommended Guy Harvey's Island Grill www.harveysgrill.com upstairs the Aquaworld Duty Free Mall and overlooking George Town's picturesque harbour, because I like the food and the ambience.
