by auburn Posted on

Planning a destination wedding is both magical and overwhelming, but if you’re dreaming of palm-lined beaches, golden sunsets, and ocean breezes, Desaru might just be your perfect “I do” backdrop. From charming resorts to unforgettable guest experiences, here’s how to make your Desaru wedding one for the storybooks.

Choose the Perfect Venue
The first step? Locking in a venue that captures the coastal magic. Whether you’re after a beachfront ceremony or a grand ballroom affair, Desaru offers it all. One standout location is the Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas, blending luxury and tropical beauty with impeccable service that caters effortlessly to destination weddings.

Plan Around the Seasons
Desaru enjoys tropical weather year-round, but timing is everything. Aim for dry months like March to October for clearer skies and breezier evenings. Always check local calendars for holidays that might affect availability or pricing.

Add a Local Touch
Celebrate the charm of a wedding in Malaysia by incorporating local elements, think bunga telur favours, tropical flower arrangements, or a traditional Malaysian tea ceremony. These thoughtful touches will give your celebration an unforgettable cultural flair.

Sort Guest Logistics Early
Destination weddings require extra coordination. Send your save-the-dates early and consider group rates for nearby accommodations. Desaru is easily accessible from Singapore and Johor Bahru, making it convenient for guests flying in.

Factors to Consider When Planning Your Wedding in Thailand – Setting the base for your planning

by caleb Posted on

From stunning backdrops of serene scenery to rich culture and heritage, Thailand’s many aspects seem to captivate the hearts of couples who want their big day to be unique. For all those couples out there whose hearts have been captured by Thailand for your destination wedding, here are a few factors you will need to look into during your planning.

Best Places for a Destination Wedding in Thailand

While Thailand has a diverse array of places where one could tie the knot in style, a few stand out among the rest. Phuket and Koh Samui are famed for their pristine beaches and luxurious resorts, ideal for seaside ceremonies. Hua Hin is known for the lovely beachside resorts like Avani+ Hua Hin Resort offering stunning back drops for a Hua Hin wedding. For those desiring urban sophistication, Bangkok boasts elegant venues with panoramic city views.

The Weather 

Since Thailand is a tropical country, it is important to take the weather into account. November to February is the dry season and offers pleasant weather with minimal rainfall. Keep in mind that since this is peak period, the costs will be higher. May to October is the wet season and offers lush scenery and potential cost savings but comes with the risk of unpredictable showers.

Cost and Budgeting Tips

Hosting your wedding ceremony in Thailand is definitely much less costly than it would be in a western country. You can opt for a date during off-season for access to discounts for services. You can also opt for bundle packages – photography, catering, and décor will all come in as one bundle which can be more economical that getting it from separate suppliers.
