Before you travel:
Guests marrying in the Seychelles will need to send all the original legal documents listed to the representative in Seychelles via courier at least 12 weeks before the date in order to present to the civil status office for registration of the wedding. Your documents will be handed back to you on arrival in Seychelles.

ALL ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS MUST BE TAKEN WITH YOU WHEN YOU TRAVEL

Translation of documents
All legal documents must be in English or legally translated into English. All documents need to be stamped and apostilled, as per the Civil Office.

The Wedding Ceremony

In most destinations, your wedding ceremony will be conducted Monday to Saturday (excluding local holidays and subject to availability).  Generally, your wedding will take place in the grounds of the hotel unless otherwise specified.  Many hotels offer wedding gazebos for extra privacy.  Some hotels may offer more than one wedding per day with the first wedding taking place at around 10am with the last wedding at 4pm.  The majority of our weddings are conducted by a marriage officer whose title varies depending on the resort.  Where it is possible to be married by a Minister, the ceremony will be non-denominational unless otherwise stated and will be a Civil wedding.

Tropical Sky Weddings and the information given above only apply to couples: who were born in the UK/Ireland and have a valid UK/Irish passport (with some months validity on return home).  If you do not fulfil these requirements you must advise us.  Couples should be referred to the embassy of the country of origin and the country where they wish to marry as they may require extra documentation to satisfy their own embassy requirements – Tropical Sky cannot advise on this and couples must investigate this on their own. 

Mixed Nationalities

Additional wedding administration fees may apply if you are of mixed nationality and you will require additional apostilles on the marriage certificate as well as a authentication letter.  Please note that for the mixed couples all documents must translated in English and notarised.  If you are of French, Swiss or Italian origin, additional procedures prior and after the wedding will be required of you.  Costs are minimal & payable locally.  Average additional fees would be €20 for an apostille stamp on your marriage certificate (this is to confirm the wedding is legal in your own country).  You may also require an extra copy of the marriage certificate (€8) and an authentication letter (€20).

As Tropical Sky weddings have no jurisdiction over hotels/resorts/venues/legal requirements and their charges, we cannot be responsible for any increases or changes to these wedding arrangements.  We will, however, endeavour to advise you of changes as soon as we are made aware of them.
