"Mike and I wanted a stress-free wedding in a beautiful location that was all about us.  And this is exactly what Magic Reef provided.  Nothing was too much trouble for Barry and Judy, who kept in contact with us regularly prior to our arrival in Rarotonga, and made all the necessary arrangements on our behalf without any glitches.  Judy went out of her way to make our wedding exactly how we wanted it, which meant zero stress for us.  All we had to do was turn up, be pampered and get married, resulting in a ceremony that we could totally focus on and stunning photos (the sunset was amazing!)."  Mike and Natasha Reid
