An island off the east cost of southern Thailand, Koh Samui is known for its natural splendour: turquoise seas, white sandy beaches, mountainous forests, and coconut groves. As you can imagine, it is a wonderful place for a destination wedding, from beachside ceremonies to outdoor celebrations. Over the years, Creative Events Asia  has had the pleasure of discovering many excellent wedding venues in Samui. Below are some of our favourite resorts, offering luxurious facilities, wonderful food, and distinctive charms, in this quintessential tropical paradise.

Six Senses Samui
Set on a gently sloping headland at the northern tip of Samui, Six Senses Samui offers 66 private villas, many with personal pools, landscaped within natural vegetation, and with panoramic vistas of the Gulf of Thailand. With a reputation for being environmentally friendly, the resort boasts an understated sense of luxury. Here, it’s all about living the good life, from fine cuisine made from organic produce grown on the premises to yoga on rock-fringed beaches. Weddings at Six Senses, whether you elect for a traditional Thai blessing or a Western ceremony, promise to be just as warm, wholesome, and blissful.

Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui 
Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui occupies an enviable piece of land on the north-western tip of the island – its 70-some private luxury hillside villas are shaded by coconut groves and overlook the sparkling sea. Here, true luxury permeates every experience, from five-star facilities to impeccable services. Wedding packages include the traditional Thai wedding with a Buddhist religious ceremony and a more conventional “Island Wedding”. Both include accommodations, spa treatments and post-ceremony celebrations; we can help facilitate any additional details you might want. With a host of on-site activities, including beach sports, private cruises, and kickboxing lessons, stay on for a truly memorable honeymoon.
