Emma and Dylan chose paradise for their wedding at The Outrigger on the Coral Coast in Fiji. They were joined in Fiji by their tribe of awesomes who hail from the Sunshine Coast, Australia and beyond.
This bride and groom's wedding day was so full of fun from getting ready to dancing at the reception. Both Emma and her bridesmaids along with Dylan and his groomsmen were set for the most fun and meaningful day of their lives - and that's exactly what they had. The party started as soon as they awoke on the morning of the first day of October - their wedding day. The fact that they were in Fiji multiplied the celebratory mood for their wedding in paradise.
The Outrigger in Fiji was a great venue for their wedding day as they were surrounded by the relaxed and super friendly staff who were always willing to help where possible.
The bride and groom both could not hold back their tears as Emma walked down the isle with her Dad. The emotional outpouring was off-the-charts beautiful!
Their beach wedding ceremony was so gorgeous with turquoise ocean in front of them and palm trees behind them. The splashes of native Fijian flowers on bamboo structures were stunning too and added to their authentic wedding day in Fiji.
After the wedding ceremony on the Outrigger Fiji beach we took the golf buggies up to the hills which were a completely different feel to the ceremony. There were epic beach views on one side and rolling green hills on the other - spectacular and so perfect for bridal party portraits. Then we headed back down the hill to the beach for sunset photos with the bridal party followed by just the bride and groom.
The reception then kicked on with a traditional Fijian dinner and dessert buffet which we got to partake in - AHH-MAZING. The speeches were equal parts hilarious and tear-inducing. After the speeches the dancing (& singing!) began and was literally some of the most energetic moves and vocals we have ever seen at a wedding (& we've been to a few!). Major props to the groom's sister Jess for getting the guests shaking, moving, grooving and singing their lungs out.
The following day we joined the bride and groom for a beach trash the dress session which you will find on our blog very soon - stay tuned.
We want to say a big thank you to Emma and Dylan who took us over to Fiji in their suitcase so we could photograph the most special day of the lives. We loved every minute of it!
We wish you both all the love and happiness in the world!!!
Enjoy...
Jesse & Mikala X
