Tahiti Weddings

Traditional Wedding Ceremony on Moorea It is the dream of many to have a romantic, exotic and memorable wedding in Tahiti. And there are many 4 and 5-star hotels many of the islands here that will accommodate your every dream and desire.

However, weddings in French Polynesia are ONLY legal if you establish residency for 30 days prior to the wedding. This will entail obtaining a visa for longer than 30 days, which may prove challenging for citizens of countries that are only allowed stays of up to 30 days, such as USA and Canada.

As most people are not able or willing to satisfy this requirement, your wedding in Tahiti will be one of symbolism only and not legal. Many people who wed in Tahiti do it as a second ceremony before or after their legal wedding or a renewal of vows.
