1. Weddings at Sunset Resort
Weddings can be very difficult to plan and organise remotely. The staff at Sunset Resort
are experienced in organising special events and will take care of all your arrangements
from the wedding ceremony through to accommodation and the reception. With our local
knowledge we can also help you and your guests with any other activities or services you
may need while you are on our beautiful island.
Our resort wedding packages are designed to fit with any budget and if you cannot find
the right package for you we can customise the package to suit your requirements. The
staff at Sunset Resort will work with you to create a wedding you are happy and
comfortable with.
We require the wedding couple to stay at the resort for a minimum of 3 nights and approximately
30% of your overseas wedding guests in order to hold the wedding at Sunset Resort.
For marquee weddings one of the rooms booked should include a beachfront studio.
Please check with our Wedding Planner for further information on accommodation and
applicable group discounts.
The resort facilities are perfectly placed to accommodate intimate and exclusive weddings
whether on the beach, on the lawn overlooking the lagoon or in our spacious onsite openair restaurant catering for a couple and up to 60 guests (enquires welcome if you wish to
cater for more than 60 guests).
During our initial contact your wedding planner will send you a ‘wish list’ to complete and
return. Once you have selected the items on your 'wish list' we can prepare a quotation
and send this to you for your approval. Any changes that you make we revise and send
an updated quotation so at all times you know what the services and costs are for your
wedding day tailoring the costs to suit your budget.
We then organise the booking and confirmation of your wedding package keeping in
touch with you and providing any information you require. On arrival the wedding planner
will meet with you to set up appointments with necessary suppliers in the days leading up
to the wedding. The wedding planner will also liaise with the Reservations Manager and
the Restaurant Manager to ensure all your accommodation and reception needs are
taken care of.
The Cook Islands have a very relaxed policy that allows international citizens to marry
legally, only requiring the couple to reside three full working days in the country prior to
their wedding. However, a waiver may be applied for (at an additional cost) if the couple
require to get married in less than 3 working days. To apply for the wedding licence you
only need to provide; Full Birth Certificate in English and Passport. If divorced or
widowed you will need to provide the appropriate documents to process the application.
