WEDDINGS
Weddings on romantic Vatulele Island are usually held on the beach at sunset, in a "church" with doors and windows created from plaited coconut leaves and flowers. Traditionally dressed Fijian warriors accompany the bride on a barge trip across the lagoon and children toss flower petals in the sand as she is carried ashore to take her vows. The ceremony is accompanied by the mellow voices of a village choir raised in sublime harmony.
Villa experience:Located on its own private island, surrounded by a magnificent coral reef, all-inclusive Vatulele. The POINT was conceived by Henry Crawford (who created Vale Viqi) and opened in 2003. Motorized water sports are prohibited, but guests will find an abundance of water-based activities. Vatulele has outstanding scuba diving and is a PADI 5-Star Gold Palm Resort. The food and wine are excellent, and for romantics, the resort can arrange a special private dinner or picnic on your own deserted island in the lagoon. Vatulele was named top resort at the 2004 Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards.
