THE PETERSON-LUCKENBACH WEDDING

Cameron Peterson & David Luckenbach, New York, NY

Cammy & David knew they needed a location that had reasonable wedding offerings, as well as a place that was not difficult to reach or expensive for their guests. After extensive research, “we narrowed it down to Pelican Bay on GBI (finding a few other alternatives in case it didn’t work out ), and took a trip in November 2004 to check it out.

Nearly everything at Pelican Bay matched what we were looking for. Pelican Bay offered us a package that could remain within our budgetary constraints as well as the option of getting married on the beach and having a reception outdoors in a beautiful spot. We also liked the amenities of the area, such as those at the marketplace and the Westin, and the intimacy of Lucaya.” The beauty of the islands is present in every detail of Cammy & David’s tropical wedding at Pelican Bay.

The bride and her attendants carried lovely bouquets of pink and white orchids; David sported an indigenous bird of paradise on his lapel, while conch shells, sea glass, and seashells graced the reception tables surrounded by candles and Tiki torches.

What a celebration for over 50 family members and friends who traveled from such states as Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Virginia to name just a few. And they loved it, too. “Many said it was the best, most fun, and most unique wedding they had ever attended. Our relatives are still beaming and talking about it.”
