Beach Weddings in Bali: The Opportunities are Endless!

by pushpitha Posted on

When planning a wedding, the number of details one will need to care of are truly too numerous to count. Conventional wisdom dictates that you start planning the event at least a year in advance and for that one year, the number of issues one will need to sort out will most likely be overwhelming. Given this reality, it is truly no surprise that many couples nowadays opt for destination weddings. Having a destination wedding does not mean you have to compromise on the grand plans you had for your ceremony: it simply provides you with a change of scenery and a truly memorable backdrop against which to be married. For instance, a couple can opt to travel to Indonesia and choose to have a beach wedding in Bali, one of the most scenic islands belonging to the country.
A destination wedding provides you with numerous advantages and one such huge advantage is that most resorts including Starwood Hotels & Resorts in Indonesia,offer couples with the option of choosing a wedding package. This reduces not only the cost, but the hassle of having to organise it yourself. Given that the wedding will take place on the beach, one can also save on décor, for the stunning setting alone will be more than sufficient. It’s also ideal for guests seeking to go away on vacation, for most resorts will happily negotiate a reduced rate for a large number of guests making it more affordable. The only glitch is ensuring that you aim to have the wedding during the peak season for a beach wedding on a rainy day is surely not the way to go.
A beach wedding in Bali is also more likely to be less stressful than a wedding back home. The change of scenery contributes to a change of pace and instead of meeting and greeting your new in-laws for a few minutes, couples will feel more inclined to take their time and mingle with their guests. The wedding will be a lovely combination of elegance, relaxation and celebration for most resorts will go that extra distance to ensure that the venue is beautifully decorated. Just imagine the marvellous photo opportunities! With a destination wedding, the choices are limitless.
