Questions

Is this a legal wedding?

No — it's a symbolic ceremony. Most couples do the legal paperwork at home and come here for the real celebration.

Can we have 2–6 guests?

Yes! This package is built for small, intimate groups of 2–6 people.

How long does the ceremony take?

Around 30–45 minutes, followed by a photo session during golden hour.

Can we write our own vows?

Absolutely — we love it when couples do. We can also provide a simple script if you'd prefer.

What happens if the weather is bad?

We always have a backup — a covered beach spot or adjusted timing. You won't be left in the rain.
