A WHITSUNDAY WEDDING.

by Steve-H - last update: Nov 7, 2003

Taking the plunge...

The Ceremony.
On the 24th March 2003 we were married on Whitehaven Beach, Whitsunday Island. A simple ceremony in perfect surroundings. Our good friend Amanda acted as best man, bridesmaid, ringbearer etc and the ceremoney was performed by Ivan Conway the Whitsundays celebrant ( unlike the UK where a licensed venue is required in Australia a celebrant can marry you wherever you please) take a peek at his site; WWW.WHITSUNDAYWEDDINGS.COM.AU if you are looking to get married in the sun and fancy something different then i can highly recommend the Whitsundays as the place to do it.
Whitehaven Beach is 99% silica and is cool even under the hot tropical sun, it is one of only 7 beaches of this type in the world.

Pros:"Paradise, perfect beaches, blue seas."
Cons:"The sun can be fierce, take a good waterproof sunscreen."
In A Nutshell:"Remember it`s a reserve so there are few facilities."

 Hello Steve...thanks for sharing your special day and the wonderful Whitsunday Islands with us. Though I don't think I'd list Amanda as a tourist trap!! :-) Great photos and tips!
