Wedding Please ask for rates A Vatulele wedding is where the fantasy of a lifetime comes true! For many career-minded couples, organizing a wedding takes an enormous effort that the idea of eloping can become extremely attractive, especially when the wedding can take place in the serene romantic setting of Vatulele Island Resort.
The service is often held on the private beach at sunset, in a church with doors and windows created from plaited coconut leaves and flowers. Occasionally, traditionally dressed Fijian warriors accompany the bride on a tranquil barge trip across the lagoon whilst the bride is carried ashore to take her vows. The ceremony is accompanied by the charming voices of a village choir raised in sublime harmony.
Wedding ceremonies at Vatulele Island Resort are not merely a show. The vows are solemnized by a Fijian minister, and as a result of their popularity, weddings are limited to only a few per month. Each wedding is tailored according to the guests requirements, with romantic and traditional options including traditional Kava ceremony and dancing to a vast selection of romantic dinner locations.

Vatulele is the only five-star island resort with a PADI Golden Palm dive facility, complete with two resident dive instructors. The island is surrounded by deep water and offers twenty-two dive sites within fifteen minutes motor boat ride. It is one of the premier dive destinations in the region, offering daily certified courses within a cross section of diving environments.
