Frequently Asked Questions On Weddings In Maldives

The Maldives islands have a tropical climate all around the year. However, there are only two main seasons. Weddings in Maldives start at the high season in December and end in March while the low season runs from April to November.

Rainfall is very heavy during the low season and you might not wish to get married if you’re looking for particularly sunny and clear skies. The best months to get married are February and March owing to the lovely weather conditions. Do note that many people also prefer December and January for Maldives weddings, and this is a great choice as well.

It will be important to note that the weather here is quite unpredictable. You might not be able to tell when there will be a spell of the shower so, it is better to check the monthly weather guide for more information on average temperature, rainfall, and sunshine. The heat might be uncomfortable for some of the guests, therefore you might want to consider marrying just before sunset.

The Maldives is an archipelago of 1,107 islands in the Indian Ocean. The splendid location with its tropical climate makes for a wonderful destination option for weddings. You will have the time of your life witnessing magnificent coral reefs, tall palm trees, and pristine white sandy beaches. The Maldives boasts beaches with the most picturesque backdrops in the world. If not a beach, you can organize ceremonies on a luxurious yacht in the sea, with the deck overlooking turquoise waters or the premises of the best wedding venues or resorts in the Maldives.

The Maldives is very well connected with the rest of the world. Flights from Mumbai take five hours while you can reach the capital, Male, in 7 hours if you plan to come from New Delhi. Moreover, you can get married in the capital and go off to some other island of your choice for your honeymoon. There are innumerable 5-star amenities, restaurants, and wedding packages you can pick from. From populated isles to private spots, there are several spots that offer great views of the city. 

It’s still possible to host a destination wedding in the Maldives if you’re traveling from another country as there are plenty of flights running from around the world.

This is the question asked by all the couples who are preferring Maldives as a wedding destination. A wedding in the Maldives between two foreign nationals is not legally binding. Most couples who prefer to get married in the Maldives have a legal wedding at home and then a beautiful wedding ceremony along with a honeymoon in the Maldives.

Paperwork is much easier, no need to spend weeks before your Wedding in Maldives, just enjoy the vibe of getting married in Maldives.

Don't get drowned in collecting paperwork and organizational issues, we will take care!

What do I need to get married in Maldives?

While a symbolic ceremony may not be legally binding, it can still hold deep meaning for a couple. During such a ceremony in the Maldives, the couple will have a celebrant declare their commitment to one another and to spending their lives together. They can still incorporate beautiful decorations and celebrate their love romantically. Most importantly, the couple will have the opportunity to create impressive photos with the stunning Maldives ocean backdrop, memories they will cherish for years to come.

The sole difference between a symbolic ceremony and a legally recognized wedding is the lack of official documentation. However, this should not preclude a couple from having the ceremony they desire while vacationing in the Maldives. It is straightforward for most couples to complete the necessary paperwork either upon returning home or in advance of their trip. The ceremony day itself should be focused on celebrating their union, not administrative tasks.
By opting for a symbolic ceremony in the Maldives rather than an official legal wedding, couples can avoid the stress of coordinating paperwork and documentation in the weeks leading up to their trip. They will not need to provide any records for the ceremony itself. All that is required is for the wedding party to bring their attire for the special occasion.
Formalities should not stand in the way of having the wedding a couple dreams of at their dream location. What matters most is that the ceremony allows the couple to express their commitment to one another in a memorable setting befitting their vision.

Yes, Indians can get married in the Maldives.

Check with the Maldivian embassy and Indian Embassy to get an overview of the legal requirements to get married in Maldives. These might include certain documents, and adhering to local laws.

To know more about the cost of an Indian wedding in Maldives, feel free to contact us.

You can add any Maldivian culture to your wedding! Exchanging vows and rings along with your traditions adds some Maldivian culture to spice it up and create beautiful memories.

In the Maldives, a traditional wedding ceremony includes a Bodu Beru (drums) procession. This takes place with around 20 drummers that play Bodu Beru dressed in traditional clothing, leading the happy couple down the aisle and to their wedding ceremony. It is topped off by having a local Gazi (judge) preside over the ceremony, all of which is done in the local Divehi dialect. Some couples that go the traditional route also choose to wear traditional Maldivian clothing. It’s all up to the couples!

Couples can also, of course, have a Western wedding, or Indian wedding and skip all of the Maldives traditions. Still, many Maldives resorts offer wedding packages including the Bodu Beru drummers, after all, it’s a Luxury destination wedding in Maldives.
