The expense
Having your wedding in Fiji can be a cost-effective way of having the wedding of your dreams. Fiji offers affordable packages to suit every budget, and the long list of wedding experts available can help you secure an incredible package at the price you want.
For family and friends wanting to be part of your special day, packages are always available. Captain Cook Cruises offers some amazing group packages when 15 or more passengers are travelling and, depending on your numbers, you could save up to 50% on your wedding.
What you will need
To get married in Fiji, couples must produce a range of documents including original birth certificate, valid passports, divorce or deceased papers (if applicable) and a marriage license. The legal age of consent to marry is 18 years for both male and female.
Where to go
The Yasawa Islands offer spectacular scenery and dramatic backdrops set away from the commercialism of some holiday hotspots. An archipelago of about 20 volcanic islands, the Yasawa group is the perfect balance of luxury and natural beauty. Cruising is the best way to explore the islands, and Captain Cook Cruises’ MV Reef Endeavour is small enough to negotiate the remote, hard-to-get-to spots you don’t want to miss.
For those wanting a cultural experience, as well as the perfect wedding, you can’t go past Northern Fiji’s garden islands. The people are incredibly friendly and the leisurely pace of life makes it the ideal place to unwind and celebrate your love with your nearest and dearest.
If you are after a stress-free wedding that’s both memorable and relaxing, Fiji makes the perfect destination. Getting to and from Fiji is easy, and the travel discounts available give an opportunity to share a unique experience with close family or an intimate circle of friends. There is something to suit everyone and every budget, and the friendly English speaking locals will only add to your incredible wedding.
