Exuma Bahamas Weddings: Gina and Chris’ Real Wedding
It may have been love at first sight. It may have been the love of boating that they share. However, it was their love for these islands that brought them to Exuma to tie the knot. Gina and Chris met at Baker’s Bay, Abaco, on a Girls Boating weekend. A mutual friend introduced them. That was three years ago. The rest is history.
Chris sailed Gina’s family’s boat to Georgetown, Exuma, for the wedding. Of course, while on the island, boating excursions were a must.
