Taking ‘Happy 6th’ to the next level… 

 

We are officially growing the Watkins family! No not with a baby, with a ring and a promise.

We invite you to join us on this great adventure we call love, as we say #happy6th and join together under one family name, as Mr & Mrs Watkins.

Together with our girls, we have chosen a patch of paradise to make it all official. Our wedding website is here to help you plan your way to Fiji, from the basics of accommodation and transport to the necessities of champagne and cocktails. For those who are unable to make it, we will find a way to celebrate on our return, there’s always another Happy 6th!
