The islands of love await with their azure tropical waters lapping onto sandy shores… Needless to say, Fiji creates the dream backdrop for an island wedding, which can easily become a reality by booking one of the islands’ fabulous wedding venues. Yes, Fiji’s resorts know a thing or two about creating the ideal destination wedding, whether it’s an elaborate display of culture and character or a simple elopement on the beach. Whatever your style and however far you want to travel in Fiji, there are wedding venues to suit. We share with you some of our favourites in this list of the best wedding venues in Fiji.
