If you are planning to get married at the Almond Moragn Bay, DO NOT USE THE HOTEL WEDDING CO-ORDINATOR JESSICA.
Jessica did not listen to a single instruction we asked of her Wedding Photography and made our wedding service unforgettable, but for the wrong reasons, wrong cake, wrong flowers, no transport and throwing our champaign away, to name but a few of the problems she caused. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
There is a public beach no more than 100 metres from the Almonds own beach. This is the beach we had wanted to get married on, as it is a beautiful setting for a wedding, with palm trees, soft sand and some great props for the photos. We were told by an outside source that the wedding could go ahead at this location. However, Jessica wouldn’t allow it as she decided that it was too much effort for her to make the arrangements. Just another thing to add to our list!
We made our wedding work, despite the set backs. We had our families around us, a beautiful day and a fantastic minster to marry us!
We hired a photographer from outside of the hotel as he had been highly recommended.
His name is Bill Mortley, (www.billmortleyphotography.com).
Bill is a kind, friendly and genuine man. He is a US citizen, but resides in St Lucia. We had read a lot of good reports on Bill and decided to use him for our wedding.
After the initial enquiry with Bill via email I had already decided that we were going to use him. Bill took over 450 photographs of our wedding. He arrived 1 hour prior to the wedding (3pm), and remained with us until 7pm that evening. He took us to 2 additional locations on the Island (around 5 miles away) where he captured some of the most amazing photographs and memorable moments! Bill offered us 50 photos for a set price, my adivse, forget the 50 and buy the lot, its worth every dollar!!! Bill if you ever read this, thank you so much!

Our son’s wedding 18th Feb and our wedding vow renewal 21st Feb were the best days (See below for exceptions) The day of the wedding was fantastic, Bill Mortley (Photographer) found on Trip Advisor was exceptional. www.billmortleyphotographer.com, Certainly good times to remember.
