Once dependent on sugar exports, this Indian Ocean jewel is still as sweet as it was when Mark Twain declared that Heaven itself had been modelled on Mauritius. Envisage exchanging your vows to the rhythms of Sega singers, toes in the sand, under the embrace of a 600 metre volcano. Discuss your personalised wedding plans with your personal wedding coordinator, including your choice of ceremony venue, special touches of tropical bouquets, wedding cake, and professional photographers to capture every moment of your celebration. For religious ceremonies, we suggest combining your wedding and honeymoon as a minimum residency of 15 working days is required. If you choose to do this, Mauritius rewards you with fine dining and deep sea diving, boasting a rich marine life in its unbroken barrier reef, and deep cultural influences from its African neighbours. Creole cooking, colonial-style architecture, and its plethora of land, water, and nature activities means this melting pot is a winning wedding and honeymoon combination.
