Man those are awesome. Maldives is a place on my bucket list but just geographically speaking I can't see anytime soon that I'll get there. That must have been one heck of a set of flights!
Congratulations on getting hitched BTW. :)

Thanks! yeah, it takes a long time to get there from Vancouver. no direct flights. but we stopped in asia first, so it made the flights a bit more bearable.
Because of its location, we were told barely any North Americans go there.

A little more detail on the location/resort would be awesome.

we stayed at the http://www.velassaru.com/ its a 15-20min boat ride from the main island. we also went to the sheraton, but left and went back to the velassaru after one night!
all the pics so far were taken while snokelling the "house reef" (just walk off the beach and into the water) in 2-5' depth of water only!
The Maldives is a huge chain of islands, and from the main island you take a boat or small plane to get to the resorts. each resort is on its own island.
i'll can give more details later. feel free to ask if you have any more questions.
