Weddings
For many career-minded couples, organizing a wedding takes such enormous effort that the idea of 'eloping' can be very attractive, especially when the wedding can take place in the romantic setting of Vatulele. The service is usually held on the beach at sunset, in a 'church' with doors and windowscreated 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. Wedding ceremonies at Vatulele are not merely 'show business' however. The vows are solemnized by a Fijian minister,and because of their popularity, we limit them to three a month. All the guests are invited: they participate in champagne toasts, the traditional Kava ceremony, a native feast cooked in pits in the ground, and later enjoy the villagers' genuine ceremonial dances. For all concerned, a Vatulele wedding is the fantasy of a lifetime come true.
