Other Information:
Legality – All ceremonies are legally binding and recognized per USA requirements.
Documents – Passports; Original or Certified copies of Birth Certificate; letters of Parental Consent if under 21;
Decrees of Dissolution by the Registrar General, local or State Government, if divorced, or copy of Death
Certificate if Spouse has died.
The Registry office is open Monday - Friday from 9.00am – 3.00pm. Your marriage license must be obtained
before the ceremony, so keep this in mind if arriving on a weekend. You will need to wait until the Monday
morning to get your license. Guests need to register in the province they will marry in, so they cannot register in
Nadi and get married in Savusavu. The District office can only marry people if the license was issued at the
Savusavu office.
Ceremony Times and Location: You will meet with the Wedding Coordinator after you have checked into your
Bure. She and her staff will show you different locations on the property and work with you on all aspects of your
special day. Ceremonies are generally held at sunset, unless a different time is requested. Weddings can take
place at the beach, the Blowhole Deck or the Point Deck.
Officiating officer performing the ceremony: All ministers in Fiji belong to a certain church. There are no nondenominational
ministers. While we will try to honor requests for a specific type of minister, who is available for
the date requested will be the primary factor. Catholic Weddings are held at the nearest Catholic Church. There
are no weddings on Sundays.
Holidays: Ceremonies cannot be held on a public holiday. Fiji has many, so please be sure to check your
requested date with our Reservations Office.
Wedding certificate: The certificate only shows two names – that of the bride and groom before they get
married. It shows Miss XX married Mr. ZZ. You choose what name you want afterward.
Bouquets: Are made at the resort using local flowers found on the property or nearby area.
Choir: It is the Methodist church choir and they sing religious Fijian hymns. The Fijians are well known for their
melodic voices and songs in harmony. Their very special songs will add a unique character and an “island
atmosphere” to your wedding ceremony.
Meals For Visiting Guests not staying at Namale: While we do not normally allow outside people to use the
resort facilities, people may come on the property as visitors of our guests. The Registration Desk needs to be
informed of this and the drinks and meals will be charged accordingly.
Room Safe: Every Bure has a “strong box” and we also have a safe in the office.
Dry Cleaners & Hair Salons: There are no dry cleaners or Hair Salons in Savusavu. Main island availability is
limited.
Please note: Namale requires for any couple planning their wedding to choose a date at least 72 hours after arrival.
