| When we first called Charles and Sue we only knew we wanted to get married in Fiji, we had no idea what island or as to which resorts would let a group rent out the whole place. Charles provided me with pricing and overviews of probably 25 resorts before we found the right one. It is so nice to have a travel agent who has been to Fiji many times before. Otherwise we would not have known the situation with our final two choices. One is actually on a cliff looking over the ocean with a private beach, and the road is behind the gardens on the property. The other one was across the road up the hill and not beachfront. After 3-4 weeks of looking it all over we deiced to have our wedding at the Cliffside one-Taveuni Island Resort.

There were 18 people coming to attend the wedding from all over the US and one from Europe. Charles was on top of it from the beginning. He kept things organized with travel arrangements and paperwork for the whole group thus taking the strain off the bride and groom and we are most thankful for that. Charles and Sue were so easy to work with. They always returned my calls or emails quickly, answered all our questions and hooked us up with a trip of a lifetime for a lot less than I had originally anticipated.

| The wedding and the week itself were way beyond anyone's expectations. The wedding was at sunset on the beach and the resort staff truly outdid themselves. Flowers and floral arrangements were all over the beach, all over the dinner table, in huge pots in the dinning area, they even decorated the pillars and chair backs with palm branches and flowers. The best part of all of this was that we planned ahead of time to get married in Fiji, but as far as the details of the minister, flowers and ceremony- that was arranged in about an hour, three days before our wedding over tropical drinks.

Most of our wedding party had never been anywhere quite like this. The people of Fiji are so laid back and kind. The whole wedding party has become even closer as a result of this trip. All of us say that we had "the best time of our lives" when we discuss it. We will always look back on this milestone in our lives with big smiles and warm fond memories of Fiji.
