Choosing A Destination Wedding

Beach weddings have always captured a certain spot in the imaginations of couples-to-be and more and more people are making that dream a reality by hosting their nuptials in Thailand. Recent years have seen Thailand become one of the premier destinations for beachside weddings worldwide, and with so many venues and beaches to choose from, its easy to see why. 

Whether you prefer the white sand beaches of Koh Samui, the jaw dropping beauty of the Andaman coast, or something a little more remote on the southwestern coast of Thailand, there is no shortage of destinations to make your wedding one to remember.

Location, location, location

As Thailand's beaches and resort areas become more and more developed, there are now literally hundreds of options to choose from when looking for the perfect location for your wedding ceremony. Private villas are especially popular, allowing the newlyweds to relax in total luxury after the celebration while enjoying the tropical beauty of Thailand. Many couples opt to make the wedding into a longer holiday as well, spending some time with family and loved ones for the ceremony before travelling around the kingdom for their honeymoon.

“Couples that opt to host their wedding in a private villa are free to decide on the food, decorations and music that all contribute to making a more bespoke celebration”
