Fiji weddings are the stuff of dreams. The islands are marketed as one of the finest romantic destinations in the world. There are hundreds of secluded palm-fringed beaches for you to spend a peaceful day alone; tiny uninhabited coral islands to enjoy a romantic picnic and lots of small intimate resorts with beachside thatch bungalows scattered around the islands. And there's lots to do for the more active couple from getting married whilst scuba diving on a coral reef to exchanging vows beneath a tropical waterfall. For those wishing for a traditional style wedding, a handful of resorts have built their own beautiful wedding chapels for their guests privacy.
