Why Fiji?
Fiji has something for everyone, weather you want to be married barefoot on an sandbar somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, walk amoungst the grasses of the highlands or emerse yourself in a tropical rainforest. Fiji has so many different options especially for those small more boutique weddings we are seeing in Fiji. Its also helps that Fiji is just a short 4 hours from the East Coast of Australia, so you don’t have travel a long way and deal with jet lag, you can get married over a long weekend!
The process
Initially Chelsea will set up a complimentary meeting via phone or Skype to establish the nature and extent of wedding assistance required.
If you decide to have Chelsea plan your wedding she will provide venue & ceremony recommendations, review all the wedding contracts, manage pricing negotiations, confirmations and deposits all on your behalf. Chelsea also makes supplier recommendations for companies providing services such as florists, photography, videography, cake, transport, hair & makeup. The legal side also has to be arranged and Chelsea can organise all documentation on your behalf.

3. Jean-Michel Cousteau – Vanua Levu
Most of our clients have children so when they ask us for the best family resort but still offering that romantic atmosphere Jean-Michel Cousteau on the northern island of Vanua Levu Fiji is our first recommendation. Just a short 1 hour plane ride to Vanua Levu from Nadi airport, this all inclusive resort offers nannies for each child under 5 years and buddies for kids over 6 – 12yrs included in the rate from 8.30am – 9pm and the kids club is out of this world! The main area of the resort is child free so you can still get that romance of an Adult only resort. At certain times for the year they will include a wedding ceremony in your accommodation package if you book 5 or more nights.

Chelsea's advice:
If you’re wanting a beautiful, stress-free and intimate wedding, a Wedding Planner will save you the endless hours involved in a planning a wedding overseas. All the legwork, sourcing your perfect location, the best accommodation rates and of course exceptional local suppliers whilst also working out all the logistics for you and your guests will all be covered.
We here at Bula Bride thoroughly agree! Even for a small group or elopement it is a good idea to have a planner involved to help you pull it all together. That way the trip and the wedding stay stress free with no details missed.
If you are wanting to find out about packages from any of the resorts mentioned, or chat more about your ideal Fiji wedding, contact Chelsea

Favourite packages
There is a long list of amazing locations in Fiji and it is always hard to narrow them down. Here, Chelsea has picked 3 of the best for small groups or elopements – and she’ll tell you why.
1. Vomo Island – Mamanuca Islands
Vomo Island is perfect for an elopement or small wedding. It’s a small family-friendly resort on a large Island with plenty of space to have a private intimate ceremony without other resort guests sneaking by for a look. They have several types of accommodation on offer, such as romantic beachfront villas or their large 3 or 4 bedroom private residences are just perfect for small groups to share. Their elopement ceremony packages start from F$5200 and all inclusive receptions starting from F$350 per person. Vomo is a boutique style resort, nothing cookie cutter about this place, they will liaise with us to create that perfect wedding for you.
