One accountable Mumbai planning office for an international island wedding — island fit, villa blocks, seaplane logistics, Indian catering approvals, decor import, vendors and execution under a single flat-fee plan, so a once-in-a-lifetime Maldives celebration stays calm, clear and exactly as intended.
Before you commit, we confirm whether Soneva Fushi truly fits your guest count and functions — its strength is an intimate, design-led private-island celebration, not a 400+ banquet. Because the island sleeps a finite number, we set the real guest ceiling honestly and in writing before any date is held.
We request and compare the resort's best available villa rates and exclusive-use / buyout terms for your dates — no inflated middleman pricing, subject to the resort's confirmation. We never quote invented numbers.
From 1- to 9-bedroom pool villas, we structure the villa block so families and elders stay grouped, manage the rooming list, and match each villa cluster to your functions — keeping the whole party on one island.
Flights from India land at Velana International (MLE); from there it's a ~30-minute private seaplane to Baa Atoll. We coordinate seaplane manifests, daylight transfer windows, the Malé private lounge, luggage and elderly-guest assistance so no one is stranded by a missed window.
We work with the resort on shipping in and approving Indian / Jain menus and specialist chefs, and on importing mandap, florals and decor to a remote island — planning customs, lead times and an island-friendly sustainable setup.
Our planning fee stays separate from vendor and resort billing, and we take a limited number of weddings each month for senior, hands-on attention on an international project.
A private island gives you natural, barefoot-luxury settings rather than ballrooms — a sandbank reached by dhoni, open beaches, jungle clearings and villa gardens. Exact use and capacities are bespoke and weather-dependent; we confirm each setting and a wet-weather backup with the resort for your guest count.
One natural way an intimate 2–3 day private-island wedding can run. We tailor the exact flow to your functions, guest count, the season and seaplane windows.

Soneva Fushi is a one-island resort in the Baa Atoll, reached only by seaplane — so flights, seaplane windows, villa rooming and catering imports all need a plan. We run all of it from Mumbai.
