A Real Example: What a Mauritius Wedding & Honeymoon Package Looks Like for UK Couples
If you are considering a destination wedding in Mauritius, one of the biggest questions is what a real wedding and honeymoon package actually costs and includes. To make things clearer, here is a genuine example based on a UK couple, showing exactly what you can expect from a luxury Mauritius wedding and honeymoon experience, without vague estimates or guesswork.
If you are still exploring whether Mauritius is the right destination overall, you may also find my complete guide to Mauritius weddings and honeymoons for UK couples helpful.
A Real Mauritius Wedding & Honeymoon Package
Here is an example of what a luxury wedding and honeymoon package in Mauritius can include.
This is based on a 4-star Beachcomber resort and is designed to give you a realistic idea of value.
What’s Included:
- Direct Return flights from London Gatwick
- 14 nights all-inclusive accommodation in a swim-up beach facing room
- Private airport transfers
- All legal wedding documentation and fees
- Civil Status Office arrangements and transfers
- Dedicated wedding coordinator
- Ceremony set-up and location
- Bridal hair and make-up (including trial)
- Bridal bouquet & groom's button hole
- Wedding cake, canapés and sparkling wine
- Photography package (50 edited digital images)
- Couples massage
- Romantic dinner for the couple
- Celebration breakfast the next morning
- Honeymoon experience (e.g. catamaran cruise with snorkelling)
Total Cost
The total cost for this package is approximately:
£10,300
How This Compares to a UK Wedding
When compared to a traditional UK wedding, the value becomes much clearer.
In many cases, UK venue hire alone can cost between £8,000 and £15,000, before you even consider:
- Catering
- Drinks
- Décor
- Entertainment
- Honeymoon
With a Mauritius wedding, you are combining:
- Wedding
- Luxury holiday
- Honeymoon
Into one experience.

What About Guests?
Guests typically pay for their own travel and accommodation.
In this example, guests paid approximately:
- £2,510 per person (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included)
While this is not a small cost, it often replaces:
- UK accommodation
- Travel
- Wedding gift
- Hen or stag celebrations
And gives guests a full holiday experience.
Why This Works So Well
One of the biggest advantages of a destination wedding in Mauritius is simplicity.
Most luxury resorts handle:
- Legal paperwork
- Wedding coordination
- Scheduling
- On-the-day logistics

Final Thoughts
A Mauritius wedding is not always “cheaper” than a UK wedding.
But the value is very different.
You are not just paying for a single day.
You are creating a full experience for yourself and your guests in one of the most beautiful destinations in the world.
