An island resort with a glass-aisled overwater pavilion, Blu Beach drummers and manta trips with resident marine biologists.
The Setting
Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru has its own island in Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where the resort runs manta snorkel trips with its marine biologists. From Velana International Airport in Malé the seaplane takes about 35 to 40 minutes, and flights run only in daylight.
Wedding settings are varied for one island: an overwater Wedding Pavilion reached only by boat, a strip of sand at Blu Beach or a private jungle clearing. Beach dinners are offered too. A dedicated wedding specialist looks after every detail, which suits couples planning from the UK. It is a resort for couples who want nature, the reef and good food built into the weekend.
The day itself
The overwater Wedding Pavilion has a glass-bottomed aisle, so you walk above the reef to your vows. At Blu Beach, you cross the sand to the beat of Bodu Beru drummers. The package includes a tropical bridal bouquet, a wedding buggy, a decorated dhoni and Champagne after the ceremony, and it can be adjusted. Indoors, the Recreation Centre has two function rooms, Jalsaa and the Library. The resort welcomes up to 120 wedding guests, and the Library takes 15 for a reception. Ask the team about numbers for each space, whether the ceremony is legal or symbolic, the music curfew and exclusive use.
Where your guests stay
Accommodation runs from water villas and beach villas with pools to the Two-Bedroom Royal Beach Villa and the Four-Bedroom Landaa Estate, with its own 80-metre beach and lap pool, a natural base for the couple and family. Dining takes in Blu Beach Club for Italian cooking, Al Barakat over the water, Café Landaa and Fuego Grill. Between events, guests can visit the Marine Discovery Centre or book time at the AyurMa spa. The last seaplane out usually leaves mid-afternoon, so plan departure days with care. Ask how many villas can be held.
Base the couple and close family in the Four-Bedroom Landaa Estate and marry in the glass-bottomed pavilion. Book a manta snorkel with the marine team for the morning after.
