  • What's the best time of day to have my wedding so I can get the nicest possible photos?
    Photographically speaking, the best time of day is late afternoon into sunset when the lighting is the most flattering. It will also be cooler and more comfortable for you and your guests. However our professional photographers listed will answer more of these questions.
    We are having a sunset wedding, what time should we start?
    The sun sets fast in the tropics with very little twilight time. It varies between 5:30pm to 7:15pm with the shortest days in the winter. Destination Weddings Aruba will evaluate your needs based on if you're seeing each other prior to the wedding, the amount of people you have, the size of your photo/video package, etc... and will create a full itinerary for you to follow.

    How much time should I allow and what photography package should I pick?
    The package you choose depends on several factors:

  • The number of people attending, does your event include cake, champagne, limousine, video, etc. The more "goodies", the longer amount of time the photography takes and a larger photo package may be required.
