Dance off
© Rarotongan Beach Resort & Spa
Have a fear of endless speeches and a boring
wedding reception? Then a Cook Islands cultural
dance show is just what you need to liven things
up! Everyone knows that Cook Islanders are the
entertainers of the Pacific so you can be sure if its
nightlife you and your partner are after – your feet
will find the call of the island band irresistible. Here
dancing is second nature and what better way for
newlyweds to celebrate than swinging to a drumbeat
- bodies entwined? Based on the legends that relate
stories of love, desire, hurt and passion the swaying
hip movements and entrancing arm actions of
performing dancers are the essence of the Cook
Islands cultural heritage.
You need to apply for your
licence in person to the
Registrar of Marriages in the
Cook Islands at least 3 days
prior to the marriage. You will
need your passport and birth
certificate when filing the Notice
of Intended Marriage at the
Registrars Office in Avarua, Cook
Islands. For further details visit
justice.gov.ck/index.php/registry/
marriage - Oh and you have to
be 21 years of age, otherwise
written approval by your parents
is required. Cook Island marriages
are legally binding worldwide.

In the Islands the coconut is known as the ‘Tree of life’ for
the many different ways it sustains life. Couples can plant a baby
coconut palm, or uto, to seal their vows. It’s said the health of
the growing tree mirrors that of your relationship.

Feature - What’s your wedding style
TRADITIONAL
14
HAVING AN ISLAND WEDDING DOESN’T MEAN RENOUNCING TRADITION. THE COOKS HAS A STRONG CHRISTIAN TRADITION, FOR THOSE SEEKING
CHURCH SERVICES. OR PERHAPS TRADITIONAL TO YOU MEANS
BORROWING FROM LOCAL CUSTOM.
Many couples marrying in the Cook
Islands like to include some local
touches in their ceremony and this is
easy to arrange.
This might be as simple, yet
sensuous as wearing a garland of
delightful local flowers, an ei, around
your necks. Or as elaborate as a
traditional ‘eco-wedding’ where the
bride and grooms’ costumes are
made from ceremonial rauti leaves
and the wedding banquet is cooked
in an earth oven, called an umu, and
served on woven palm-frond plates.
On the islands reputed to have the
best entertainers in the Pacific – make
the most of their talents and let
them serenade you with strumming
strings and songs. Watch a specially
choreographed wedding dance
performed against a breathtaking
orange sunset.
Why not walk down the aisle of
a whitewashed stone church to a
melodic choir of Polynesian voices?
You can be rowed with your loved
one in your own vaka, a traditional
canoe, towards a flower filled bower
on a sandy spit. Or wed on the
beach under a canopy of jasmine and
frangipani.
Serve your guests a succulent feast
of fish straight from the sea, produce
picked fresh from the garden or a
perfectly roasted piglet on a spit.
Then dance the night away under
a starry, starry sky to the seductive
rhythms of the islands’ sensational
drummers and phenomenal dancers.
15
THE
YOUNG
ONES
IF KEEPING THINGS RELAXED, CAREFREE AND PERSONALISED IS MORE
YOUR STYLE, THE COOK ISLANDS’ EASY GOING VIBE WILL DELIGHT YOU.
Write your own vows and choose
a place that best expresses your
personality to exchange them. There
are endless amazing locations to
select from… barefoot on the beach
standing hand-in-hand within a
heart made of shells; sprinkled by
the mist of a waterfall; or pledge
your love high on a jungly mountain
- overlooking the reef encircled
lagoon far below.
Say ‘I do’ with Polynesian wedding
bands carved with motifs for love,
happiness or loyalty, or have one of
the islands’ fabulous black pearls
fashioned into your own unique
engagement ring.
Looking for something that will
capture your hearts and those of
the locals? Escape to a secret motu
(island) on a cruise across the
lagoon with flower petals scattered
across a deck festooned with palm
fronds – where you take your vows.
Alight onto a remote sandy shore to
an island umu with a Cook Islands
band greeting you and your friends
and family.
How about arranging a party on the
beach – complete with fire jugglers
and dance lessons for all to learn the
trademark Cook Islands moves.
Have a tropical wedding dress
designed by one of the talented local
designers and invite your guests to
dress in their best beachwear.
And who needs a limo when you
can ride off into the sunset on a
scooter plated ‘just married’. You
could even lead your guests on a
scooter procession to your reception.

ELOPEMENT
18
FOR SOME THE PEACE AND SECLUSION OF TAKING THEIR VOWS ON
A TINY DESERT ISLAND WITH ONLY THE BIRDS AS WITNESS IS THE
WEDDING THEY SEEK.
If personal, romantic and no fuss is
your style – visit the registry office
(or we can arrange for the registrar
to come to you after hours) then
take your own speedboat to zip away
to a solitary island armed with chilled
champagne and a celebratory picnic
feast. Honeymoon Island in the Aitutaki Lagoon is a favourite escape.
Scooter to a private beach or sail
to a private dock. Swim in secluded
bliss amongst brilliantly coloured
fish, trek to secret spots where you
and your sweetie can take a champagne picnic. Then hold hands and
watch the sunset – startling in its
shades of crimson and gold as it
sinks beyond the lagoon.
Choose an intimate restaurant to
celebrate, or go barefoot and chic
for a candlelit dinner on your balcony or table for two on the water’s
edge. Recline in a beautiful flower
filled Bedouin-tent billowing in the
breeze while you sip champagne
and indulge in a specially selected
menu a deux.
We do though suggest you might
arrange a photographer to capture
your special day – just in case you
want to share it with loved ones
later!

FIRST
CLASS
JUST BECAUSE YOU’RE HEADING TO A SOUTH PACIFIC ISLAND
TO MARRY, DOESN’T MEAN FORSAKING THE REFINEMENTS OF A
MARRIAGE AT HOME FOR COUPLES CHOOSING THE COOK ISLANDS.
This modern Polynesian nation has
a high standard of living and many
sophisticated venues delivering the
highest of wedding standards as
professionally as anywhere.
Weddings are a specialty of the
Cooks and there is an abundance of
wedding planners, celebrants, stylists,
photographers, hairdressers and
makeup artists well versed in keeping
even the most discerning of brides
and grooms from all corners of the
world happy.
To look your best for the big day
or to unwind after all the attention
you can indulge in spa treatments
at leading hotels around Rarotonga
and Aitutaki.
Have your reception in elegant
luxury hotels with breathtaking
lagoon views or in style on the sands
seated along the shoreline at long
tables set with candles and fragrant
jasmine. Heighten the drama by
dining under the stars as flickering
light from flame torches dances on
your silverware.
Exchange vows beside the infinity
pool of an intimate luxury resort,
high on a mountain overlooking
the mesmerising lagoon below, or
walk up the aisle of a traditional
limestone church.
And for the ultimate in exclusivity,
entertain your wedding guests at one
of several very luxuriously appointed
private villas found in enviable
beachside locales, complete with your
own private chef and musicians.

Destination
The island of Rarotonga is
the vibrant hub of the Cook
Islands. It is spectacular looking,
dominated by a once mighty
volcanic pyramid, jagged peaks
and razorback ridges carpeted in
lush green vegetation that fall into
a turquoise lagoon.
Most of the 15,000 resident Cook
Islanders live on Rarotonga making
this the ‘big smoke’, though you
won’t find any traffic lights or any
buildings higher than a coconut tree.
Only 32 kilometres in circumference,
it takes less than an hour to drive,
scooter or bus right around - you’ll
feel like you are in one big resort!
Avarua is the main town where a
range of shops and galleries and
the unmissable Saturday morning
Punanga Nui Market purvey quality
artworks, highly regarded Cook
Islands’ black pearls, and brightly
Little Polynesian Resort Rarotonga
coloured clothing and homewares,
including the Cooks’ unique ‘tivaevae’
or embroidered quilts.
The South Pacific’s best and
freshest food is served in more
than 50 inexpensive café’s and
restaurants found right around the
island, many in glorious waterfront
locations. Locally grown tropical
fruits and vegetables and plentiful
seafood abound.
There are endless ways for the whole
wedding party to explore Rarotonga’s
exhilarating environment.
Laze, swim or snorkel on some
of the world’s best beaches like
Arorangi, Titikaveka or Muri,
enjoying the whitest of sand and
bluest of water, which rarely drops
below 25˚C year round. There are no
nasty stingers in the water at any time
of year either.
Climb 400 metres to Rarotonga’s
highest point, The Needle, before
descending to Wigmore’s Waterfall
for a swim on the cross-island trek
(best undertaken with professional
guide Pa).
Check out the fun and relaxed
nightlife scene, with outdoor
nightclubs, open air bars and even a
special nightlife bus taking you to all
the favourite spots around the island.
Experience the Cooks’ invigorating
drumming and dancing at cultural
shows or island nights or join a dance
lesson at your resort or the cultural
centre in town.
Tour the craggy interior on a 4WD
tour, complete with humorous
commentary or a quad bike tour.

islands and accommodation

AITUTAKI
HEARD OF THIS PLACE? IT’S NOT
SURPRISING WHEN AITUTAKI’S
SPECTACULAR TRIANGULAR
LAGOON IS OFTEN RATED AS THE
MOST BEAUTIFUL IN THE WORLD.
Aitutaki Lagoon Resort & Spa
After Rarotonga, Aitutaki is the
second most visited island in the
Cook Islands. Just a 45 minute flight
north of Rarotonga, many visitors
make sure they see this amazingly
beautiful island on at least a day trip.
Air Rarotonga offers a One Day
Excursion from Rarotonga that
includes transfers, airfares, a lagoon
cruise, snorkelling and lunch.
Secluded and romantic, it has
compelling allure for honeymooners,
many of whom choose this haven
for the duration of their stay.
You can look forward to languid,
28
leisurely days simply revelling in
each other’s company and the jawdropping surroundings. Work on
your suntan lazing under a coconut
palm, relax with a massage at the
Aitutaki Lagoon Resort’s Spa or ask
for directions to the secret garden.
Sip champagne in the sophisticated
Pacific Resort or cocktails before a
swim at the lovely Tamanu Beach
Resort. Share a delicious meal
of mud crab at Tupuna’s famed
restaurant or a delightful brunch at
Koru Café.
There are countless ways to explore
the crystal clear, warm turquoise
waters and 20 uninhabited islands,
called motu, which fringe the lagoon.
How about kayaking to a fine white
sandy beach that you can have all to
yourselves? Or hiring your own boat
and setting a course for Honeymoon
Island or to One Foot Island where visitors can get their passport
stamped at the world’s smallest post
office.
Several tour operators cruise
daily to these and other sand islets
and to favourite snorkelling spots
abundant with colourful fish,
turtles and coral clusters.
Check out the kiteboarders
zooming across acres of sandy
shallows on the South East trade
winds then get a lesson and have
a go yourself. Going fly fishing
for the mighty bonefish is another
popular and memorable lagoon
pursuit.
And just beyond the reef
Aitutaki offers outstanding and
readily accessible scuba diving for
beginners to experts and fantastic
deep sea fishing.
Learn the history and culture
of the warm and gentle Aitutaki
people on day tours or hire a
scooter or bicycles to explore at
your own pace, meeting the locals at
church or the market.
The main island, dwarfed by the
vast lagoon, offers gorgeous places
to stay for all budgets, including
the Cook Islands’ only overwater
bungalows, and many boutique
properties catering exceptionally
well for honeymooners.
For more splendid isolation you
can even stay out in the lagoon on
otherwise uninhabited Akaiami
Island, once the refuelling spot
for the TEAL flying boats on the
legendary Coral Route across the
Pacific. How romantic.

WHERE TO EAT
THE COOK ISLANDS IS HOME TO SOME OF THE
FINEST CUISINE ON THE PLANET.
You will be delighted by the dining experience in the Cooks.
Everything is available - from the best burgers you have ever
had in your life at Gourmet Burgers, to the local favourite
of ika mata by the seaside at Trader Jack’s to fine dining
with a Polynesian twist at Tamarind House. A highlight
of your visit will be a Polynesian cultural tour, dinner and
performance. We always eat at the Punanga Nui Markets on
a Saturday, so much variety, and the smell of organic coffee
from Atiu just kick starts your morning. And everybody,
locals and tourists alike, come to the markets, so it’s a real
social occasion. You can’t go wrong wherever you choose
to dine. Half the fun is scooting around the island and
stopping where the day takes you! And there’s a restaurant
bus at night time, and don’t forget the nightlife tour to get
you around to all the hotspots.
Visit www.weddings.cookislands.travel to get a list of
our favourite restaurants.
WHERE TO STAY
WHEN IT COMES TO WHERE YOU’LL REST YOUR HEAD AT NIGHT, THE
COOKS IS ALL ABOUT SERVICE AND GENUINELY WARM HOSPITALITY.
You really are spoilt for choice in the Cook Islands. We like
to say Rarotonga is one big resort, all on one island, so it
really doesn’t matter where you stay, because it’s so easy to get
around (it takes 45 minutes to drive around the whole island,
so you can’t get lost either).
Aitutaki is considered the most beautiful lagoon in the
world, and here you’ll base yourself at your resort and
spend time in the beautiful lagoon. Most visitors stay from
2-7 nights, although day trips can easily be arranged too.
Accommodation on both Rarotonga and Aitutaki ranges
from the ultimate in five star indulgence to full service
resorts, affordable holiday homes on the beach, private villas

A LOVE STORY
Ina & The Snake
A ROMANTIC COOK ISLANDS’ LEGEND IS COMMEMMORATED ON THE
COUNTRY’S THREE DOLLAR NOTE. HERE IS THE TALE OF LOVESICK MAIDEN INA
AND HER DISTANT LOVE TINIRAU AND THE SHARK THAT TAKES HER TO HIM.
HER
STORY
Some people spend years planning their wedding. CITC’s Australian
PR Manager Gaynor Stanley is not one of those people. We thought
the impulsive romantics among you might like her story.
April 13 – Chris and I excitedly
prepare to fly next day to Rarotonga,
our first visit together since our very
first holiday as a couple 25 years, four
countries, two kids and one dog ago.
“Maybe we should get married while we’re
there? If we can get a celebrant and a dress,
let’s do it!”
April 14 – All day training course
doesn’t leave alot of time for dress
hunting. Arrive bridal store 40 minutes
before closing. “Are you getting married
soon?” “Um, maybe next week. If you
have a dress that fits.” The first gown
I try is meant to be. Check emails
and all go with the celebrant. We’re
getting married! Chris frantically irons
best white shirt. Leave for airport at
6.30pm. With children. And our birth
certificates.
April 16 – The lovely Ani at the
Pacific Resort Rarotonga takes charge,
in the nicest possible way. She makes
sure our documents pass muster and
arranges for the licence to catch us up
at the sublime Pacific Resort Aitutaki,
36
where we’ve long been planning a
child-free sojourn (thanks Aunty
Kim!).
April 19 – Hello Aitutaki and
Misepa, my friend from Cook Islands
Tourism. “Would you like to come to a
wedding tomorrow afternoon? Be great if
you could be our witness.” Then we head
straight out on the spectacular lagoon
for an amazing day snorkelling with
Teking’s Cruises. Late afternoon we
arrive back at the Pacific, where the
delightful Tekura finesses the final
touches for tomorrow’s ceremony.
The champagne starts to flow as we
watch the sunset from our hammock
then head out to feast on mud crab at
the legendary Tupuna’s Restaurant.
April 20 – Shrug off slight hangover
with a delicious breakfast, mesmerised
by the infinity pool and glistening
turquoise lagoon beyond. Everything
is so calm. Oops, never got round
to buying rings on Raro did we?
Scooter round island looking for rings
but only score black pearl cufflinks.
Chris reirons his shirt, not so much
frantically as concentratedly this time.
I don my mother’s pearl earrings,
a new brooch – gift from the dress
designer – and borrow Tekura’s hairclip
to secure a rogue gardenia. Something
blue? That dazzling lagoon. Red and
purple petals scatter the pristine sands
to where Chris awaits within a heart of
red hibiscus. Minister Pumati Pumati
guides us with trademark Cook Islands
gentle humour through beautiful vows.
We plant a coconut tree following
Cook Islands tradition (see page 9).
Then sink into a bed of cushions
within a Bedouin-style tent to feast on
sushi and sashimi, decadent desserts
and, naturally, more champagne as the
lagoon shimmers ever so gently to
the tune of a setting sun and distant
ukulele.
And then we fly back to Rarotonga to
let the world know ‘we eloped’.
PS: April 20-something – buy
Polynesian wedding band and black
pearl and diamond ring.
Ina was an attractive young woman,
with long braided hair: she wore
beautiful white shells on her arms
and a rich breast ornament around
her neck. Ina was from the land of
Nukutere and was hopelessly in love
with Tinarau, the god of the ocean
and lord of all fishes.
Tinarau lived far away on a floating
island and one day, after a disagreement
with her family, Ina decided to go in
search of her loved one. She went to
the sea and encouraged some fish to
help her swim, but the fish were too
small to bear her weight and so they left
her gasping in the breakers on the reef.
Eventually a friendly shark appeared
and to her great delight agreed to carry
Ina on his back. She quickly gathered
two coconuts to take on the journey.
Halfway through her dangerous quest
Ina become thirsty, so the helpful
shark raised his dorsal fin on which
Ina pierced the eye of one of the coconuts and refreshed herself. Further
on she again asked the shark for help
and he raised his head, upon which she
cracked the second hard coconut shell.
Smarting from the blow he dived to
the depths of the ocean, leaving Ina to
float as best she could. From that day
there has been a marked protuberance
on the sharks head which is now called
‘Ina’s Bump’.
Fearing she would drown, she called
on her unbridled love for Tinarau.
Her plea was answered by Tekea the
Great, the king of all sharks, who rose
from the bottom of the sea to rescue
the tenacious and beautiful girl and
transport her to Tinarau’s Island.
Eventually the brave girl was delivered from the perils of the sea as they
reached the sacred isle. She soon
found a house in which she beat a
great wooden drum to attract her
lover, but when Tinarau entered the
coy girl hid herself. Tinarau, unable to
find who had beaten the drum, left the
house, but Ina - fearing she would lose
so noble a man - again beat the drum.
When Tinarau came back and discovered the beautiful, blushing girl who
had endured so much to be by his side,
his heart swelled with love and admiration for Ina. He asked her to be his
bride and they became man and wife.
