    We are hoping to get married on November 21, 2025 with a welcome white party the night before and a catamaran experience the day after. We are looking for a quote for the best wedding package including everything from the ceremony, reception, dinner, after party with DJ and dancing, photographer, videographer, floral, decor. We expect 200 guests, we want to have the wedding on the beach.
