So, like many we were forced to cancel our trip. Since then, we became engaged, bought a house and have two fur babies. We love travel, so we only saw it fit to drag our loved ones to a destination wedding to celebrate our love. We chose Plantation/Lomani because it accommodated both family and adults-only preferences. The two resorts are owned and operated by the same group, and we found it perfect for us. We were initially booked at a venue on the mainland however after researching further we decided the island vibe was more down our alley. Oh wow, a lot of research and organizing was involved! Apart from the normal decisions like dresses, outfits, rings etc. We did a lot of research on vendors including photographer / videographer, band, stylist, hair & makeup – it was a big commitment! Viva Travel recommended our venue and managed some of the guest accommodation. We did the rest of the planning ourselves along with the Venue wedding coordinator." } ["_flexible_content_1_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bda93306b" } ["flexible_content_2_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) "5" } ["_flexible_content_2_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bc5633069" } ["flexible_content_3_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(476) "

GETTING READY:

Totoka Hair & Make Up did our hair and makeup – these girls did such a fabulous job! I had a trial done in Nadi a week before the wedding. I made a couple of small changes and both hair and makeup turned out even better on the day. My dress was from ''Made with Love' while the bridesmaids dresses were from House of CB. The Groom & the guys wore: Suit Supply.  " } ["_flexible_content_3_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bda93306b" } ["flexible_content_4_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) "5" } ["_flexible_content_4_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bc5633069" } ["flexible_content_5_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(516) "

THE CEREMONY:

Location: Plantation Island Resort – beachfront bure Fiji Weddings Atelier provided and set up at the ceremony, with a theme of a green, white with some pink - tropical boho style and also provided our flower and bouquets. We had our own personal vows and one of our Groomsmen, Ben did a special ‘Tying of the Knot’ ceremony for us." } ["_flexible_content_5_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bda93306b" } ["flexible_content_6_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) "3" } ["_flexible_content_6_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bc5633069" } ["flexible_content_7_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(606) "

GETTING PHOTOS:

Ocean Studio did our photography and videography as well. When we were deciding on our photographer & videographer, we were down to our two favourites. After speaking with Yoshi at great length about what exactly we were after we felt a greater connection with them. We were looking for intimate and fun – capturing great action shots and also had a few funny snaps with the bridal party. Our photos and video is amazing – I think we have watched it a thousand times!" } ["_flexible_content_7_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bda93306b" } ["flexible_content_8_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) "4" } ["_flexible_content_8_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bc5633069" } ["flexible_content_9_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(923) "

THE RECEPTION:

Location: Lomani Island Resort We opted for a white with some greenery and pink theme. Fiji Weddings Atelier also provided and did the set up at the reception. Lomani Island Resort set up a bar just for our wedding and Sereana (wedding coordinator) surprised us with our own cocktail list. There was one called Sabarre and one called MacKinnon – it was a lovely touch! Our dinner menu was a Fijian Seafood Feast! Our wedding cake was three tier cake and included in our wedding package. We had a topper made which we brought along with us. Music/DJ/entertainment was by Billy and the Gang! We love our live music, so these guys were amazing – they had everyone up and dancing. We had a sparkler send off and fireworks display organised by Fiji Weddings Atelier.  " } ["_flexible_content_9_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bda93306b" } ["flexible_content_10_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(1) "4" } ["_flexible_content_10_image_repeater"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5943bc5633069" } ["select_vendor_0_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(2) "11" } ["_select_vendor_0_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5966139c6f821" } ["select_vendor_0_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(22) "a:1:{i:0;s:5:"17114";}" } ["_select_vendor_0_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_596613ce6f822" } ["select_vendor_1_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(3) "207" } ["_select_vendor_1_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5966139c6f821" } ["select_vendor_1_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(22) "a:1:{i:0;s:5:"17110";}" } ["_select_vendor_1_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_596613ce6f822" } ["select_vendor_2_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(3) "214" } ["_select_vendor_2_select_vendor_category"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_5966139c6f821" } ["select_vendor_2_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(22) "a:1:{i:0;s:5:"23969";}" } ["_select_vendor_2_select_vendor_post"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(19) "field_596613ce6f822" } ["flexible_content_11_add_content"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(461) "It was a very busy week in lead up to the big day with many friends and family arriving a few days before to enjoy Fiji.
