Fall in love with Fiji

With a tropical climate and dreamy locations, we asked two couples why they chose to tie the knot at Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort.

COLIN AND CHERI CHAN WERE MARRIED AUGUST, 2018 AT OUTRIGGER FIJI BEACH RESORT

What made you consider Fiji?

We had previously been to Fiji and saw the cutest chapel by the beach looking out to the sea – it was the prettiest thing we’ve seen. A romantic beach wedding with sun and cocktails... why not?!

What was your best memory of your time at Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort?

Everything! But if I had to pick, it was the incredible view looking out to the Coral Coast. Absolutely unforgetta­ble! Also, the wedding coordinato­rs Darshita and Va were a godsend, always responding to my communicat­ion profession­ally and promptly. I emailed them so many questions, and always felt that we were in good hands.

Did your guests enjoy your wedding being in Fiji?

Oh, absolutely! Friends and family flew from across the world to experience Fiji. The sun, the beach, kava and the coconuts; they loved it and still rave about it. They only wish they had stayed longer! RENEE AND NGAWATI RONGO APANUI TIED THE KNOT IN JULY, 2018 AT OUTRIGGER FIJI BEACH RESORT

Why did Fiji appeal to you?

We always wanted a destinatio­n wedding, so after looking at package inclusions across all other options, we decided to go with Fiji due to the lower cost – as well as both of us never having been to Fiji.

Did your family explore Fiji?

Our families had never been on vacation together in such large numbers (80 total), and it was spectacula­r, with a lot of awesome memories to share forever. They made the most of the adventures Fiji has to offer: zip-lining, 4WD tours, jet ski tours and our private charter to Tivua Island. They loved that we chose Fiji for our wedding!

What was the best thing about Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort?

The atmosphere at Outrigger is enchanting and precisely what we wanted. The chapel on the hill was breathtaki­ng and offered stunning views for the most special day of our lives. To start planning your very own Fiji Wedding, visit fiji.travel or email sales@outriggerf­iji.com.fj.
