Weddings :
We can arrange and complete all the formalities regarding civil marriages. The procedures are fairly simply but a few steps must be observed and adhered to.
The civil marriage can be celebrated either at the Civil Status Office within in the locality of the clients' hotel or at the hotel itself.
Civil Mariage Formalities
Step 1 - The couple must produce their original documents to the Civil Status officer in Port-Louis and
together swear an affidavit at the Supreme Court.
Step 2 - Afterwards the couple will be taken to the Civil Status Office in the locality of the hotel for the
publication of the bans.
Step 3 - The civil marriage may take place 24-hours after the publication of the bans, except on Saturdays,
Sundays or Public Holidays.
Our local partner "Connections", will provide a driver-guide who will accompany the guests for all above formalities.
