Taya and Jacob’s classic Sofitel Fiji wedding
Taya and Jacob’s wedding wasn’t focused just on the ceremony, but creating an unforgettable experience with their closest loved ones. Sofitel Fiji ticked all their boxes, with extras.
With just 28 guests, the couple chose Fiji, which allowed them to transform their wedding into a beautiful holiday with the people who matter most.
Sofitel Fiji hit all the notes for Taya and Jacob.
“We felt a destination wedding would be the ultimate experience,” Taya shares. “Having our closest loved ones in another country to celebrate with us was so surreal. It was intimate, and the entire holiday and wedding day were perfect.”
Sofitel Fiji was the ideal choice for the happy couple. For Taya, although she dreamed of a beachside wedding, being on the sand itself was out of the question.
“Personally, I didn’t want to be on sand so it was great having both our ceremony and reception on grass but so close to the beach,” explains the bride.
The couple chose Sofitel Spa Lawns to exchange vows. The serene outdoor setting is just steps from the water and allowed the couple to embrace their beach vibe with a bohemian spin on it. The all white palette was a beautiful ode to their classic style.
After the ceremony, the guests moved to the beach. With cocktail hour complemented by the Fijian sunset, the air was one of celebration. After moving the Meke Lawn, the party was sset up with long tables, a dance floor, and celebration under the stars.
“Just finding a venue that had the exact set-up we would like was so important to us,” says Taya. “We also loved that it was close to the airport, it made everything so easy for our guests.”
To remember the day, the couple turned to Peachylini, who photographed everything. The photos capture the essence of the wedding, and the love in the room.
“She made us so comfortable and was so easy to work with she was a dream,” the couple says about Rose from Peachylini.
Working with Destinations by Easy Weddings
Organising a wedding is no small feat, and organising one overseas presents even more complications. Taya and Jacob chose to work with Destinations by Easy Weddings, which helped the whole trip and celebration run seamlessly.
“Amelia was the best Wedding Consultant for Jacob and I during this experience,” Taya gushes. “There is no way we could have done it without her. Having someone with so much knowledge and advice made the entire experience comforting. We are so thankful for all of her help. There was no question or request too hard.”
