Four Seasons Resort: The Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru

Baa Atoll, Maldives

The overwater Wedding Pavilion at the Four Seasons Resort Maldives is one truly unique wedding venue (and one of my dream destinations!). With space to accommodate sixteen guests in addition to the wedded couple, the overwater Wedding Pavilion is only accessible by boat. If you are planning an elopement or small intimate wedding ceremony, this place is perfect. An added bonus: the glass floors allow you to see below into the ocean.
