Church Wedding in Mauritius

Would you like to fulfil your dream of a church wedding in Mauritius? Share your wishes with us and we will take care of the rest. In Mauritius, an incredible wedding ceremony is possible all year round. This heavenly jewel in the Indian Ocean offers a unique setting for your wedding and the following honeymoon with its white sandy beaches, the crystal clear waters and mild temperatures throughout the year. In Mauritius, weddings can be held in English, as well as in French. You decide yourselves in which of the Roman Catholic or Protestant churches you want to get married, as each offers its own charm.

For a Catholic wedding, we recommend the chapel of Cap Malheureux. It is located only a few kilometres from Grand Bay and is one of the most photographed monuments in Mauritius. This spot offers a great view of the three small northern islands – Round Island (Ile Ronde), Flat Island (Ile Plate) and Gunner’s Quoin (Coin de Mire). The picturesque monument accommodates around 70 people.

Please keep in mind that the preparation of a religious wedding can take between 4 and 5 months in Mauritius. Reasons are the search for a suitable priest and also the fairly long mailing route for your documents. We will gladly send further information at your request.

Regarding the church wedding, we will be happy to provide you with information about prices of white doves, carriage rides or limousine service, champagne and appetizers and much more for after the ceremony.

Required Documents for a Church Wedding in Mauritius

1) pre-nuptial inquiry

2) Nihil obstat

3) both baptismal certificates

4) Dispensation (states that you are free to marry in the Catholic Church)

In order to get married in Mauritius in a Catholic way, you must already be married civilly. You can also realize your dream of getting married civilly in Mauritius, because the civil marriage certificate only has to be presented on the day of the religious wedding. You can therefore get married civilly only the day before the religious wedding.

Let us know your wishes and we will advise you on the most appropriate venue. The possibilities are vast in Mauritius. A small wedding ceremony on a public beach or on a private beach in the garden of your own beach villa or on a small uninhabited island? But maybe you prefer to say "I do" on a catamaran or a yacht. Breathtaking locations and the possibility to organize and experience different ceremonies according to your own ideas will make couples and guests shine. Contact us for pricing information.
