    Snacks thanks i hope it all works out, its funny i said i would never get married again as i am not one to be centre of attention but i am very excited about this. I think it will be only 20 - 25 of us there so it will be very personal.

    Sweets, I think you need to be prepared to be the centre of attention on your own wedding day! But 20-25 people sounds lovely and intimate. I'm sure it'll be beautiful.

    I just shot a wedding at the Shangri-la in Fiji a few weeks ago. I loved the venue. The people there are so kind and attentive. It was amazing........ The location is obviously incredible Oh, and the breakfast is amazing! Fiji is a traveler's country par Excellence, and whatever your budget, Fiji gives good value for your vacation dollars and plenty of ways to spend them. have a great wedding!!!

    the shangri-la is really lovely...i always loved the drive over to the hotel...

    if i had a choice between the naviti and the warick, i probably would go the warick. i felt that it was a little bit more spesh. but ppl are right, the naviti has a bit more family kids environment...and they recently did a refurbishment.

    Congratulations!! I didn't get married in Fiji, but eloped to Vanuatu. I cannot recommend an intimate island wedding enough!! It is so easy and stress free. I hope you have a fantastic wedding.

    Snacks i know, just dont think it will be as over whelming like a big wedding. I like the idea of being away and in a relaxed holiday mode, i think it will help me alot. I love party's and other peoples weddings but i am not comfortable at my own. Sounds silly i guess but i have always been like that.

    Megan thanks that is what we are aiming for easy and stress free.

    I didn't go through and read everything, but my brother got married in Fiji in 06 and it was beautiful!!!

    The ceremony was the in most amzing little chapel right on the water at the Sheraton Resort on Denarau Island, just out of Nadi. There was a Fijian Choir singing up the back which is the most beautiful sound!! The reception was on the not far from the Chapel in the beautiful outdoors and was an amazing evening. There was only about 30 people there (due to location a lot of people couldn't afford to make the trip) which was lovely and intimate. The meal was beautiful and the cake just gorgeous!

    DH and I got married 2 months later in Aus and wondered why we didn't follow suit with them (well I did, not DH, he a country boy!). They didn't find it difficult at all with the organisation and there really wasn't any hiccups at all.

    They'd recommend it to anyone and I'd agree with them! Fab location, beautiful people, amazing service and really easy to pick a wedding package to suit you.

    I hope that was a help

    we are also planning a wedding in fiji for next october, but unsure where to stay. it's between naviti and warwick because of the all inclusive packages. we have a few friends who have stayed at naviti before and they tell us it was a lot better than warwick (though they did not stay there).
    my travel agent insists we should stay at warwick, and says its much nicer than naviti.
    oh also my friends say that warwick was mainly older people?? (we have a lot of children going)

    i need help! can someone who has been to both please tell me what you think?
