Many visitors in pursuit of romantic endeavours come for weddings, honeymoons, renewal of vows, or to just take time out to be with the one they love.
If you could choose one of the most romantic places on earth to escape to for that ‘special’ wedding or secluded honeymoon, then you would surely choose the Cook Islands.
Couples from all over the world are choosing to get married here; they feel that escaping to the magic of a tropical island wedding is the ultimate in romance. Each year many couples exchange vows in these islands, creating their own dreams and a partnership to last a lifetime.
Couples need to be in the Cook Islands three full days prior to the ceremony to obtain their marriage licence. Documents required are individual passports and birth certificates, plus divorce and death of spouse papers if applicable. The legal age of consent to marry is 21 years, otherwise written approval by parents is required. The Registrar may waiver the three day requirement in special circumstances, but our wedding coordinator must apply in advance and a small fee is applicable. Application for this licence cannot be made outside the Cook Islands.
Te Manava provides you with access to a range of professional and friendly people who are well skilled at adding that personal touch to your wedding day. Celebrants, florists, designers of wedding gowns, beauty specialists, caterers, photographers,serenaders, solo dancers, even complete cultural dance teams are on hand to make your day an unforgettable occasion. Hand-crafted rings and famous black pearls provide long lasting treasured keepsakes.
After years of marriage many couples are choosing to reaffirm their vows and have a ‘second’ honeymoon in the Cook Islands. In re-confirming their commitment to each other in a romantic tropical location, they take home endearing memories and a re-charged energy to their partnership in life.
Pacific Resort Rarotonga will assign a personal Wedding & Events Planner to ensure every little detail is taken care of on your special day.
