Private island resorts

There is no doubt that the Maldives will be a wonderful setting for a memorable wedding amidst the picturesque scenery, sunny weather and romantic ambience. In fact, there could hardly be a more entrancing setting for your special day. You will find that private island resorts in Maldives have events teams that will take care of the necessary details such as the decoration of the venue, the arrangement of the accommodation for guests and the planning of the wedding menu.

Wedding locations

You will have the opportunity to choose from distinctive wedding locations in the beautiful Maldives. However, the majority of couples choose to have a beach wedding on these islands. Your resort's wedding planners will be able to create an attractive beach gazebo or similar setting for you decorated with palm leaves and fresh flowers. If your heart is set on a sun-kissed marriage ceremony you may opt for a wedding during the high season for tourism (November to April) when there is more glorious sunshine; however, even during the low season (May to October) when rates are lower, showers should only be intermittent so you can host your ceremony during this period too.

The services of a wedding planner

If you choose a private resort in the Maldives for your wedding, you will be provided with the services of a personal wedding planner. This experienced professional can assist you in arranging all aspects of your wedding; this can include the photographer, flowers, invitation cards, decorations, food and so on. Should you desire to arrange your wedding in a truly grand manner, you may be provided with an entire team of experienced wedding planners with great expertise in arranging lavish celebrations. With these services, you may be assured that your Maldives wedding will be everything you desire it to be.

The legalities

It will be important to keep in mind that a marriage conducted in the Maldives will not be legally binding for those who are not residents of the country. Due to this reason, numerous couples choose to either have their nuptials in their native country before their wedding here (which will only be ceremonial); alternatively, couples can first have their ceremony in the Maldives followed by a legal marriage in their native country. You could select either of these options according to your preferences. Additionally, it will not be necessary to have legal documentation when arranging a Maldives wedding ceremony.

The ceremony options

You will have several options when it comes to your Maldives wedding ceremony. You could opt for a traditional type of wedding where you will undertake the customary wedding vows and receive a blessing, just as you might in your native country. On the other hand, you may also choose to include aspects of the local Maldivian culture into your ceremony. In the Maldives, local weddings are vibrant affairs, with drummers attired in traditional clothing playing the 'bodu beru' drums. You could consider incorporating such elements into your Maldives marriage ceremony too.
