What we make.

You are getting married in the Maldives and want one planner to design, plan and run the whole day.

Destination wedding

The full wedding on a resort island: venue, ceremony, florals, dinner and the day after, planned from your first call to the last guest's seaplane.

Maldivian wedding

The walimah and the reception in Malé, Hulhumalé or the islands, designed with local flowers and produced end to end by a Malé team.

Elopement

Just the two of you, a celebrant, a sandbank and a bouquet, arranged with the resort from one month ahead.

Vow renewal

A blessing on the beach, a bodu beru welcome and dinner on the sand: the ceremony you never had, or the one worth repeating.

Proposal

Planned quietly with the resort: the spot, the flowers, the photographer down the beach, so the only surprise is the answer.

Honeymoon surprises

Villa décor, a floating breakfast, a sandbank dinner and a photographer for the hour of golden light, arranged before you land.

How we work.

One planner from the first call to the last table. A written concept, a costed proposal and a rundown everyone has signed, so the day itself is the easy part.

  1. 01

    Enquiry.

    Tell us the occasion, the resort or atoll you have in mind, the date and the size of the group. We reply within 24 hours with an honest view of what is possible and hold the date. No fixed packages: every event is designed and quoted on its own terms.

  2. 02

    Your planner.

    One of our planners is assigned to you and stays with you to the end, reachable by phone, WhatsApp or video call and on hand for urgent matters from signing to the day itself. One person holds the brief, the budget and the vendors.

  3. 03

    Concept and theme.

    Your planner builds a concept around who you are: colour, florals, structures, lighting, table design and the shape of the day. Where you are unsure, we set out the options plainly. Key elements are drawn in 2D or rendered in 3D, so you see the set before it is built.

  4. 04

    Proposal and budget.

    A tailored proposal with a budget sheet that breaks out every component, from the arch to the table numbers. We work to a stated budget and show where money makes a visible difference. Quotations include GST and service charge. A 50 % deposit confirms production.

  5. 05

    Team and venue.

    We hand-pick the vendor team from our curated local network: florists, photographers, videographers, musicians, DJs, sound and lighting. Your planner walks the ceremony and dinner sites with the resort and agrees set-up times, sound limits and the wet-weather alternative.

  6. 06

    Rehearsal and rundown.

    A written rundown sets out the day minute by minute for the vendor team and for you. The day before, we meet on site, walk the sequence and reconfirm every earlier conversation so nothing is assumed and nothing is missed.

  7. 07

    On the day.

    Your planner and our production team are on the island from set-up to clear-down. We run the decoration sequence, cue the vendors and guide the couple, the party and the guests through the day. If the weather turns, the plan is already written and the call is made calmly.

  8. 08

    Afterwards.

    We clear the set, return the resort to its team and settle with the vendors. Photographs and films come to you through the photographers we introduced. We stay in touch for the anniversary, the next celebration or next year's retreat.

All 10

Questions.

The practical answers for weddings: what it costs, how far ahead, what the resort does and what we do.

How much does a wedding in the Maldives cost?

There are no fixed packages. The resort, the design, the florals and the guest count decide the figure, so every wedding is designed and quoted on its own. Within five days of your enquiry you receive a proposal with a full cost breakdown: our planning fee on its own line, the vendors at cost, and government taxes (GST) and the 10 % service charge shown. A 50 % deposit confirms production.

Can we marry legally in the Maldives?

Foreign couples cannot register a legal marriage in the Maldives. Almost every resort wedding is therefore a symbolic ceremony or a vow renewal, with the paperwork done at home before or after. Maldivian citizens marry through the Family Court, and we design the reception around it.

Which resort should we choose?

Tell us your dates, guest count and budget. We come back with islands that fit, each with the ceremony spot, the transfer from Velana International Airport by seaplane or speedboat, and the resort's own terms. We work with 150+ resort partners across 35 brands, so we can be candid about which one suits you.

How far ahead should we book?

We take bookings from one month to two to five years ahead, and your planner sees the wedding through however far away the date is. December is peak season across the islands, so book those dates months in advance.
